[PATCH, v2] Expect SI_KERNEL or TRAP_BRKPT si_code values for MIPS breakpoint traps

[Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>]

This is v2 of this patch. It was pre-approved by Maciej and i will commit
it soon if there are no objections.

While doing some MIPS/Linux tests, i've found a number of threading tests
failing due to spurious SIGTRAP's. Turns out those spurious SIGTRAP's were
actually software breakpoint hits that were supposed to be handled silently by
GDB/GDBserver, returning a swbreak event.

gdb.threads/continue-pending-status.exp is one of the testcases that show this
behavior.

I tracked this down to the lack of a proper definition of what MIPS' kernel
returns in the si_code for a software breakpoint trap.

Further discussion with MIPS maintainers showed that, historically, MIPS
kernels have never set a proper si_code and thus they use the default value of
SI_KERNEL.

There are plans to update the MIPS kernel to provide more meaningful si_code
values though, so we should expect both SI_KERNEL and TRAP_BRKPT from now
on, as GDB will handle both correctly, like powerpc.

With the following patch i have cleaner results for thread tests on
MIPS/Linux.

Regression-tested on a few MIPS boards.

OK?
