This patch is a preparation of gdb stack unwinding support. There are 3 designs for supporting arbitrary tasks stack unwinding: 1) One gdb thread represent a task[1][2]. 2) One gdb thread represent a cpu[3]. 3) Leaving only one gdb thread[4]. 1 & 2 have a flaw that, when there are lots of tasks/cpus, it will slow the startup of crash, introduce complexity of the registers context synchronization between crash and gdb, hard to cover live debug mode etc. So here we used the 3rd design. To switch task, or view arbitrary tasks stack unwinding, we will reuse the current gdb thread, and load the target task's regcache to the thread(see the next patch). This will simplify many code.
