How about this?

        gdb/
        * linux-nat.c (kill_lwp): Minor cleanup, move definition of
        tkill_failed into ifdef HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL.  Move setting of errno
        there too.  Delete unnecessary resetting of errno after syscall.
	Minor comment changes to match gdbserver/linux-low.c:kill_lwp.

        gdbserver/
        * linux-low.c (kill_lwp): Use __NR_tkill instead of SYS_tkill.
        Move definition of tkill_failed to ifdef __NR_tkill to avoid gcc
        warning ifndef __NR_tkill.  Move setting of errno there too.
        Delete unnecessary resetting of errno after syscall.
        Minor comment changes to match gdb/linux-nat.c:kill_lwp.
