configure: Bump GDB detection version for GDB_HAS_MTE

[PATCH 0/3] configure: Bump GDB detection version for GDB_HAS_MTE

Posted by Gustavo Romero 3 months, 3 weeks ago

The main goal of this tiny series is to bump from 15.0. to 15.1 the GDB
version used for setting GDB_HAS_MTE=y to correctly detect GDB versions
that support all the packets necessary to run the QEMU gdbstub MTE tests
in user mode, resolving issue 2447 [0].

I took the chance to fix a bug in configure also regarding GDB_HAS_MTE,
which was being set even if the GDB available in the build env. does not
support the Aarch64 arch.

Cheers,
Gustavo
