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.

Thanks,
