Xi Kangjie 883d50f56d scripts/gdb/linux/tasks.py: fix get_thread_info
Since kernel 4.9, the thread_info has been moved into task_struct, no
longer locates at the bottom of kernel stack.

See commits c65eacbe29 ("sched/core: Allow putting thread_info into
task_struct") and 15f4eae70d ("x86: Move thread_info into
task_struct").

Before fix:
  (gdb) set $current = $lx_current()
  (gdb) p $lx_thread_info($current)
  $1 = {flags = 1470918301}
  (gdb) p $current.thread_info
  $2 = {flags = 2147483648}

After fix:
  (gdb) p $lx_thread_info($current)
  $1 = {flags = 2147483648}
  (gdb) p $current.thread_info
  $2 = {flags = 2147483648}

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
