Since we now rely on PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE being available (added in
Linux 2.5.46), we're relying on NPTL.
This commit removes the support for older LinuxThreads, as well as the
workarounds for vendor 2.4 kernels with NPTL backported.
- Rely on tkill being available.
- Assume gdb doesn't get cancel signals.
- Remove code that checks the LinuxThreads restart and cancel signals
in the inferior.
- Assume that __WALL is available.
- Assume that non-leader threads report WIFEXITED.
- Thus, no longer need to send signal 0 to check whether threads are
still alive.
- Update comments throughout.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Remove tkill checks.
* configure, config.in: Regenerate.
* linux-nat.c: Remove HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL check. Update top level
comments.
(linux_nat_post_attach_wait): Remove 'cloned' parameter. Use
__WALL.
(attach_proc_task_lwp_callback): Don't set the cloned flag.
(linux_nat_attach): Adjust.
(kill_lwp): Remove HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL check. No longer fall back
to 'kill'.

No longer check __pthread_sig_restart / __pthread_sig_cancel in
the inferior.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_kill_one_lwp): Remove references to
LinuxThreads.
