[ARM] Fixup PC in software single step

When I exercise GDBserver software single step, I see the following
error, which has been already handled by GDB properly.

In GDBserver log, we can see, GDBserver tries to single step instruction
on 0xb6e0a6e4, and destination address is 0xffff0fe0,

 stop pc is 0xb6e0a6e4
 Writing f001f0e7 to 0xffff0fe0 in process 7132
 Failed to insert breakpoint at 0xffff0fe0 (Input/output error).
 Failed to insert breakpoint at 0xffff0fe0 (-1).

(gdb) disassemble __aeabi_read_tp,+8
Dump of assembler code from 0xb6e0a6e0 to 0xb6e0a6e8:
   0xb6e0a6e0 <__aeabi_read_tp+0>:	mvn	r0, #61440	; 0xf000
   0xb6e0a6e4 <__aeabi_read_tp+4>:	sub	pc, r0, #31

however, it fails inserting breakpoint there.  This problem has already
fixed by GDB, see comments in arm-linux-tdep.c:arm_linux_software_single_step

      /* The Linux kernel offers some user-mode helpers in a high page.  We can
	 not read this page (as of 2.6.23), and even if we could then we
	 couldn't set breakpoints in it, and even if we could then the atomic
	 operations would fail when interrupted.  They are all called as
	 functions and return to the address in LR, so step to there
	 instead.  */

so we need to do the same thing in GDB side as well.  This patch adds
a new field fixup in arm_get_next_pcs_ops, so that we can fix up PC
for arm-linux target.  In this way, both GDB and GDBserver can single
step instructions going to kernel helpers.
