  This patch adds support for linux kernel thread aware debugging on
AArch64 targets. It implements aarch64_linux_kernel_ops derived class to
provide AArch64 targets specific functionality to linux_kernel_ops class.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* Makefile.in (ALL_TARGET_OBS): Add aarch64-lk-tdep.o.
	(ALLDEPFILES): Add aarch64-lk-tdep.c.
	* configure.tgt (aarch64*-*-linux*): Add aarch64-lk-tdep.o and lk_tobjs.
	* aarch64-lk-tdep.c: New file.
