- Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix error when GDB connects to GDBserver with qC disabled
GDB gets an internal error when it connects to GDBserver started with
'--disable-packet=qC'.

../../../git/gdb/target.c:3248: internal-error: Can't determine the current address space of thread Thread 16981
When start remote, the call chain is as follows,
remote_start_remote
add_current_inferior_and_thread <--[1]
...
start_remote
wait_for_inferior
remote_wait_as
process_stop_reply
get_thread_arch_regcache <--[2]
remote_notice_new_inferior <--[3]
GDB sends packet "qC" in [1] and adds the thread/inferior if the remote
stubs understands "qC". In [2], GDB looks for the inferior to build a
regcache, and notices a new inferior in [3]. As we can see, GDB assumes
that the inferior can be found in [2]. Once the remote stub doesn't
support "qC", GDB can't look for the inferior in [2], and emits an
internal error.
This patch fix this internal error by exchanging the order of [2] and
[3].

* remote.c (process_stop_reply): Call remote_notice_new_inferior
earlier.
