make_corefile_notes: have caller free returned memory
The various make_corefile_notes implementations for gdbarch as well as target currently make an xfree cleanup on the data they return. This causes problems when trying to put a TRY_CATCH around the make_corefile_notes call. Specifically, we get a stale cleanup error in restore_my_cleanups. Omit the make_cleanup and have the caller free the memory. gdb/ * fbsd-nat.c (fbsd_make_corefile_notes): Remove make_cleanup call. * gcore.c (write_gcore_file): Free memory returned from make_corefile_notes. * linux-tdep.c (linux_make_corefile_notes): Remove make_cleanup call. * procfs.c (procfs_make_note_section): Remove make_cleanup call.
