Skip unwritable frames in command "finish"
Nowadays, GDB can't insert breakpoint on the return address of the
exception handler on ARM M-profile, because the address is a magic
one 0xfffffff9,
(gdb) bt
#0 CT32B1_IRQHandler () at ../src/timer.c:67
#1 <signal handler called>
#2 main () at ../src/timer.c:127
(gdb) info frame
Stack level 0, frame at 0x200ffa8:

even some debug probe can't set hardware breakpoint on the magic
address too,

The problem described above is quite similar to PR 8841, in which GDB
can't set breakpoint on signal trampoline, which is mapped to a read-only
page by kernel. The rationale of this patch is to skip "unwritable"
frames when looking for caller frames in command "finish", and a new
gdbarch method code_of_frame_writable is added. This patch fixes
the problem on ARM cortex-m target, but it can be used to fix
PR 8841 too.

but after the refactor, local variable ptid is used without
initialisation. However, before this change, ptid is initialised to
null_ptid. This error can be found by valgrind too...

This patch initialises local variable ptid to null in get_current_thread.
We don't need to initialise ptid in add_current_inferior_and_thread,
so this patch also removes the ptid initialisation.

Backported to the 7.10 branch per this thread:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-02/msg00134.html
This patch fixes a typo in target.c:read_memory_robust, where
it calls read_whatever_is_readable with the function arguments
in the wrong order. Depending on the address being read, it
can cause an xmalloc with a huge size, resulting in an assertion
failure, or just read something other than what was requested.
The problem only arises when GDB is handling an MI
"-data-read-memory-bytes" request and the initial target_read returns
an error status. Note that read_memory_robust is only called from
the MI code.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdb/target.c (read_memory_robust): Call
read_whatever_is_readable with arguments in the correct order.
