Please see attached patch. Hope it explains what I meant under
"change dwarf2_read_section".
If such changes are not acceptable by some reason(performance?,
readability?, something else) then I'm OK with current naming.

I definitely don't insist on such changes, I just interested
in understanding gdb "coding policy". If it is difficult
to explain please ignore this mail.
