extract_arm_insn function needs to read instructions in
gdbarch_byte_order_for_code byte order, because in case armv7b,
even data is big endian, instructions are still little endian.
Currently function uses gdbarch_byte_order which would be
big endian in armv7b case.

Because of this issue pretty much all gdb.reverse/ tests are
failing with 'Process record does not support instruction' message.

Fix is to change gdbarch_byte_order to gdbarch_byte_order_for_code,
when passed to extract_unsigned_integer that reads instruction.

gdb/ChangeLog:

2014-11-02  Victor Kamensky  <victor.kamensky@linaro.org>

	* arm-tdep.c (extract_arm_insn): Use
	gdbarch_byte_order_for_code to read arm instruction.

Sorry, I did not realize that. Will do in the future.
I assume those ChangeLog pieces should not be
removed from commit messages. I.e they will present
in both places corresponding ChangeLog file and
commit messages. Is it correct?

Thanks,
Victor

That is correct.
