linux_nat.c: Mark new thread running even if momentarily pausing
My all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series manages to trip on a bug in the linux-nat.c backend while running the testsuite. If a thread is discovered while threads are being momentarily paused (without the core's intervention), the thread ends up stuck in THREAD_STOPPED state, even though from the user's perspective, the thread is running even while it is paused. From inspection, in the current sources, this can happen if we call stop_and_resume_callback, though there's no way to test that with current Linux kernels. (While trying to come up with test to exercise this, I stumbled on: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-03/msg00850.html ... which does include a non-trivial test, so I think I can still claim I come out net positive. :-) ) Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-04-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * linux-nat.c (linux_handle_extended_wait): Always call set_running.
