Hi all,
the attached patch moves prologue detection from x86_64_skip_prologue() 
to separate function, that could be reused later. I need this separate 
function to implement unwinding of functions without debug info.

It's an almost obvious patch, I believe.

OK to commit?

	* x86-64-tdep.c (x86_64_function_has_prologue): New function.
	(x86_64_skip_prologue): Move prologue detection to 
	separate function.
	* x86-64-tdep.h (x86_64_function_has_prologue): New prototype.
