Subject[PATCH 10/13] scripts/gdb: Add internal helper and convenience function to retrieve thread_info
Date
From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

Add the internal helper get_thread_info that calculated the thread_info
from a given task variable. Also export this service as a convenience
function.

Note: ia64 version is untested.
