This patchset is for enabling ppc64le on gdb-7.6. These patches need to
be applied to gdb-7.6 that is included in crash-7.0.3 to make crash work
on ppc64le. Most of these patches (0001 till 0008) are direct backport
of gdb upstream commits. 0009 is one patch that pulls in pieces from
multiple gdb upstream commits.

Title:
  Support for the ppc64el arch

Status in “crash” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Is it possible to (discuss how to) enable the crash package to on the
  ppc64el arch?

  Recently the kernel received the config changes 
  (CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y, CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, currently in the -proposed pocket [1])

  Is it hard to move to GDB 7.7? (ppc64el GDB package starts on that
  version).

  Thanks!
