lx_current depends on per_cpu current_task variable which exists on x86 only.
so it actually works on x86 only. the 1st patch documents this clearly; the
2nd patch adds support for arm64.

Barry Song (2):
  scripts/gdb: document lx_current is only supported by x86
  scripts/gdb: add lx_current support for arm64
