I am just not sure if we should go the route of
struct objfile * -> const struct objfile *
or the other way of:
const struct objfile * -> struct objfile *
Normally const adding is better but here I do not see much useful to have any
struct objfile * const and then it just causes pointer compatibility problems.

With upstream glibc, GDB prints:
warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1.
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
A bug's been filed for glibc a few years back:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13097
but it's still not resolved. It's not clear whether there's even
consensus that this is indeed a glibc bug. It would actually be nice
if GDB also listed the vDSO in the shared library list, but there are
some design considerations with that:
- the vDSO is mapped by the kernel, not userspace, therefore we
should load its symbols right from the process's start of life,
even before glibc / the userspace loader sets up the initial DSO
list. The program might even be using a custom loader or no
loader.
- that kind of hints at that solib.c should handle retrieving shared
library lists from more than one source, and that symfile-mem.c's
loading of the vDSO would be converted to load and relocate the
vDSO's bfd behind the target_so_ops interface.
- and then, once glibc links in the vDSO to its DSO list, we'd need
to either:
a) somehow hand over the vDSO from one target_so_ops to the other
b) simply keep hiding glibc's entry.
And then b) seems the simplest.
With that in mind, this patch simply discards the vDSO from glibc's
reported shared library list.
We can match the vDSO address range with the addresses found iterating
the dynamic linker list, to tell which dynamic linker entry is the
vDSO.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

Curiously after changing for a test s/name/nXme/ in the DTD making the
gdbserver output non-conforming there is no warning or regression seen (tested
gdb.base/shlib-call.exp, using_xfer is still 1). I did not check more why the

I saw this gem of not so legible code in solib-svr4.c (scan_dyntag):
if (dyn_tag == dyntag)
and thought it deserved a small rename.
This just renames variables to be a bit more clear for those who read the
code. I also constified the parameter because, why not. The same was
done in scan_dyntag_auxv as well.
Tested only by rebuilding, since the change was done mechanically.

This changes the probes to be independent of the program space.
After this, when a probe's address is needed, it is determined by
applying offsets at the point of use.
This introduces a bound_probe object, similar to bound minimal
symbols. Objects of this type are used when it's necessary to pass a
probe and its corresponding objfile.
This removes the backlink from probe to objfile, which was primarily
used to fetch the architecture to use.
This adds a get_probe_address function which calls a probe method to
compute the probe's relocated address. Similarly, it adds an objfile
parameter to the semaphore methods so they can do the relocation
properly as well.

This patch sanitizes the access to gdbarch made by various functions of
the SDT probe API. Before this patch, gdbarch was being accessed via
the probe's objfile; however, this proved to cause a bug on 32-bit ARM
targets because during the parsing of the probe's arguments the code
needed to access some pseudo-registers of the architecture, and this
information is not fully correct on the objfile's gdbarch.
Basically, the approach taken was to instead pass the current/selected
frame to the parsing and evaluation functions, so that they can extract
the gdbarch directly from the frame. It solved the ARM bug reported
above, and also contributed to make the API cleaner.
Tested on x86_64 and 32-bit ARM.

In registry.c:registry_clear_data, the registered data is iterated and
invoke each 'free' function with the data passed:
for (registration = data_registry->registrations, i = 0;
i < fields->num_data;
registration = registration->next, i++)
if (fields->data[i] != NULL && registration->data->free != NULL)
adaptor (registration->data->free, container, fields->data[i]);
we can see that data is passed to function 'free' and data is not NULL.
In each usage, we don't have to get the data again through key and
do NULL pointer checking. This patch is to simplify them.
