For-specific Linux native code, it doesn't really matter that much
to call something "thread" or "lwp" nowadays, given with NPTL, we
assume a 1:1 model.  But this is native Linux code working at the
lwp level.  The code around this will end up calling iterate_over_lwps.
And then x86_linux_dr_get thinks in terms of lwps too.  Likewise a
all the x86 Linux debug regs related code touched or added by the
rest of the series.  Using "lwp" here is more consistent.

Thanks,
