This still looks like layering violation this way.
server.c should not really have x86 specific bits either.

My original comment on v1 was:

So, what does btrace-common.h actually contain that server.c needs?
"common" as a moniker doesn't really help much, as it doesn't
really indicate what the code is about.  Is it just common
definitions that target-independent parts of gdb and/or gdbserver
use?  How about something like leaving those parts in common/ (bonus
points of naming the file something more indicative or what is
contains), and then the native bits, like the x86 probing would
be put under nat/x86-btrace.h|c.

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
