Thank you for the patch.
I have a few nits to pick, but no serious issues.

gdb doesn't generally use the TRUE / FALSE defines -- there are
exceptions, mostly for curses code, but on the whole these should be
avoided.  You can either use 1 / 0, or true / false.

These functions only return int nowadays because C++-ification is
incomplete and nobody has gone back to fix up gdbarch to use bool
here, so I guess I'd opt for true / false.

This line is too long.

Spurious blank line at the start of this function.

Normally in gdb this kind of expression is written out more fully, like:

    if ((status32 & ARC_STATUS32_DE_MASK) != 0)

I thought GCC had a warning that prevented the form in the patch?
Maybe I'm confusing it with something else.

>> +  if (status32 & ARC_STATUS32_DE_MASK)

As long as you're touching this, you might as well change it to the
"!= 0" form.

build_gdbserver is no longer needed in this file.  Since gdbserver was
moved to the top level, Whether or not gdbserver is built is now decided
entirely by gdbserver/configure.srv.
