Pedro Alves 782d47dfbd Fix "info frame" in the outermost frame.
Doing "info frame" in the outermost frame, when that was indicated by
the next frame saying the unwound PC is undefined/not saved, results
in error and incomplete output:

 (gdb) bt
 #0  thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:63
 #1  0x00000034cf407d14 in start_thread (arg=0x7ffff7fcb700) at pthread_create.c:309
 #2  0x000000323d4f168d in clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:115

 (gdb) frame 2
 #2  0x000000323d4f168d in clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:115
 115             call    *%rax

 (gdb) info frame
 Stack level 2, frame at 0x0:
  rip = 0x323d4f168d in clone (../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:115); saved rip Register 16 was not saved
 (gdb)

Not saved register values are treated as optimized out values
internally throughout.  stack.c:frame_info is handing unvailable
values, but not optimized out ones.  The patch deletes the
frame_unwind_caller_pc_if_available wrapper function and instead lets
errors propagate to frame_info (it's only user).

As frame_unwind_pc now needs to be able to handle and cache two
different error scenarios, the prev_pc.p variable is replaced with an
enumeration.

(FWIW, I looked into making gdbarch_unwind_pc or a variant return
struct value's instead, but it results in lots of boxing and unboxing
for no real gain -- e.g., the mips and arm implementations need to do
computation on the unboxed PC value.  Might as well throw an error on
first attempt to get at invalid contents.)

After the patch, we get:

 (gdb) info frame
 Stack level 2, frame at 0x0:
  rip = 0x323d4f168d in clone (../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:115); saved rip = <not saved>
  Outermost frame: outermost
  caller of frame at 0x7ffff7fcafc0
  source language asm.
  Arglist at 0x7ffff7fcafb8, args:
  Locals at 0x7ffff7fcafb8, Previous frame's sp is 0x7ffff7fcafc8
 (gdb)

A new test is added.  It's based off dw2-reg-undefined.exp, and tweaked to
mark the return address (rip) of "stop_frame" as undefined.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

README

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
