You dropped the 'struct' from the definition of this function.  As
you're changing the next line anyway, maybe drop the 'struct' here too?

As far as I can tell the old code didn't have the 'tp != nullptr' check,
and I think every call site already makes the assumption that tp is not
NULL (i.e. if it was NULL GDB would have already crashed).

I think you should just update the comment on this function to say:
"...applies to non-NULL thread TP." and add 'gdb_assert (tp !=
nullptr);' to the function body.

With that, it looks good.
