One redundant space.

I don't understand how does this patch relate to your whole patch
series, which is about process record and reverse debugging for
aarch64.  If it is not related, please submit separately with a NEWS
entry for it.

Record/Replay requires corefiles support as pre-req, record data is
stored in the form of core files.

Is this patch stale?  I don't see the definition of
set_gdbarch_core_regset_sections.  On the other hand, I see
aarch64-linux-tdep.c already has:

/* Implement the "regset_from_core_section" gdbarch method.  */

static void
aarch64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
                                            iterate_over_regset_sections_cb *cb,
                                            void *cb_data,
                                            const struct regcache *regcache)
{
  cb (".reg", AARCH64_LINUX_SIZEOF_GREGSET, &aarch64_linux_gregset,
      NULL, cb_data);
  cb (".reg2", AARCH64_LINUX_SIZEOF_FPREGSET, &aarch64_linux_fpregset,
      NULL, cb_data);
}

...
  set_gdbarch_iterate_over_regset_sections
    (gdbarch, aarch64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections);

I assume this patch is no longer needed.
