Formatting isn't right. && and || go at the beginning of the next line.
Unnecessary parens. Like:
if (!ptid_equal (step_over_bkpt, null_ptid)
&& event_child->stop_reason == TARGET_STOPPED_BY_SW_BREAKPOINT
&& (event_child->stepping
|| !reinsert_breakpoint_inserted_here (event_child->stop_pc)))
Looks good to me with that change.
