Pedro Alves 70b662892c Simplify event-loop core, remove two-step event processing
Even with the previous patch installed, we'll still see
sigall-reverse.exp occasionally fail.  The problem is that the event
loop's event handling processing is done in two steps:

 #1 - poll all event sources, and push new event objects to the event
  queue, until all event sources are drained.

 #2 - go through the event queue, processing each event object at a
  time.  For each event, call the associated callback, and deletes the
  event object from the queue.

and then bad things happen if between #1 and #2 something decides that
events from an event source that has already queued events shouldn't
be processed yet.  To do that, we either remove the event source from
the list of event sources, or clear its "have events" flag.  However,
if an event for that source has meanwhile already been pushed in the
event queue, #2 will still process it and call the associated
callback...

One way to fix it that I considered was to do something to the event
objects already in the event queue when an event source is no longer
interesting.  But then I couldn't find any good reason for the
two-step process in the first place.  It's much simpler (and less
code) to call the event source callbacks as we poll the sources and
find events.

Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

	(check_async_event_handlers): Change return type to int.  Run
	event handlers directly instead of queueing events.  Return as
	soon as one event is handled.
	(handle_timer_event): Delete.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
