[PATCH 4/5] Eliminate spurious warnings from remote exec

[Don Breazeal <donb@codesourcery.com>]

This patch eliminates some spurious gdbserver warnings that occur when
following an exec event on extended-remote Linux targets.

When gdbserver on Linux sets up the hook for shared library load
detection, an initial step is to read the version number field of the
r_debug structure from memory.  In the current implementation, if the
version number is not equal to one, a warning is printed by gdbserver.
However, the number can be zero if the structure has not been 
initialized yet.  This seems to happen most of the time after an exec.

To suppress the warnings the error check was changed so that if
the version number is not equal to one the function silently returns
-1.  Subsequent calls to the routine find an initialized r_debug
structure.

Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux, both GDB tests and manual testing which
followed an exec, then debugged a shared library loaded by the exec'd
program to ensure that there were no warnings and that debugging shared
libs was not adversely affected.

Thanks

	* gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c (linux_qxfer_libraries_svr4):
	Return silently on r_debug version error instead of
	printing a warning.
