[rfa:ppc64] Eliminate call_dummy_address

[Andrew Cagney <ac131313@redhat.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 381 bytes --]

Hello,

This patch does two things:

- It modifies "infcall.c" so that it converts the entry-point address 
into a code address (it might be a descriptor).

- since it's now redundant, for ppc64 GNU/Linux, it stops setting 
entry_point_address

Kevin, ppc64 part ok?  It doesn't immediatly affect test results as this 
GDB still requires a mod to relocate the entry point.

	* ppc-linux-tdep.c (ppc64_call_dummy_address): Delete function.
	(ppc_linux_init_abi): For PPC64, do not set call_dummy_address.
	* infcall.c (call_function_by_hand): Convert the entry point
	address into a code address.
