scripts/gdb/linux/tasks.py: fix get_thread_info

Browse Source 
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}
