gdb: remove objfile parameter from get_objfile_bfd_data
I noticed it was unused. I think that makes sense, as it shows that
objfile_per_bfd_storage is not specific to one objfile (it can be shared
by multiple objfiles that have the same bfd).
There is one thing I wonder though, maybe I'm missing something. If
the BFD doesn't require relocation, get_objfile_bfd_data stores the
newly allocated object in objfiles_bfd_data, so we can assume that
objfiles_bfd_data is the owner of the object. When the bfd's refcount
drops to 0, the corresponding objfile_per_bfd_storage object in
objfiles_bfd_data is deleted.
But if the BFD requires relocation, get_objfile_bfd_data returns a newly
allocated object that isn't kept anywhere else (and isn't shared). So
the objfile becomes the owner of the objfile_per_bfd_storage object. In
objfile::~objfile, we have this:
if (obfd)
gdb_bfd_unref (obfd);
else
delete per_bfd;
I'm thinking that obfd could be non-nullptr, and it could require
relocation. In that case, it would never be freed. Anyway, that's not
really connected to this patch.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* objfiles.c (get_objfile_bfd_data): Remove objfile parameter,
adjust callers.
