Hello Jan, Pedro,

How about something like this?  See also users/mmetzger/btrace-non-stop.
I'm going to send this in v3 of the non-stop series once the name of the new
scheduler-locking mode has been decided.

    btrace: honour scheduler-locking for all-stop targets
    
    In all-stop mode, record btrace maintains the old behaviour of an implicit
    scheduler-locking on.
    
    Now that we added a scheduler-locking mode to model this old behaviour, we
    don't need the respective code in record btrace anymore.  Remove it.
    
    For all-stop targets, step inferior_ptid and continue other threads matching
    the argument ptid.
    
    This assumes that inferior_ptid matches the argument ptid.  If it doesn't,
    behave as if the target were non-stop and apply the move command to all
    threads matching the argument ptid.
    
    This should make record btrace honour scheduler-locking.
