[PATCH 2/4] scripts/gdb: Fix parameter handling in $lx_per_cpu

[Florian Rommel]

Before, the script tried to get the address by constructing a pointer to
the parameter (by name).  However, since GDB now passes the parameter as a
GdbValue, we cannot get its name.  Instead, we retrieve the address through
GdbValue's address attribute.

Before:
>>> p $lx_per_cpu(cpu_info)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./scripts/gdb/linux/cpus.py", line 152, in invoke
    var_ptr = gdb.parse_and_eval("&" + var_name.string())
                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
gdb.error: Trying to read string with inappropriate type `struct cpuinfo_x86'.
