Use the target architecture when encoding tracepoint actions
This patch uses the target architecture rather then the objfile architecture when encoding tracepoint actions. The target architecture may contain additional registers. E.g. ARM VFP registers. This information is needed to allow their collection. Since we can never know whether the registers numbers in the target match the binary's we have to use tdesc here. One note about combined debuggers / multi-inferior from Pedro Alves: In the combined debugger case taking Cell as the practical example that gdb supports currently: In that case, the main target_gdbarch() will be powerpc, but you may have set a tracepoint on _spu_ code, which has a different gdbarch. so for that case, target_gdbarch would be wrong. I think that in that case, we'd need to find __the_ target/tdesc gdbarch that is (bfd) compatible with the objfile's gdbarch. I think cell/spu gdbserver doesn't support tracepoints, so we can ignore this for now. The multi-inferior/process case is somewhat related, but its simpler. each inferior has its own gdbarch. That is, target_gdbarch depends on the current inferior selected. In fact, that just returns inferior->gdbarch nowaways. No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 ARMv7 and x86. With gdbserver-{native,extended} / { -marm -mthumb } gdb/ChangeLog: * tracepoint.c (encode_actions_1): Use target_gdbarch () rather than loc->gdbarch.
