Building for x86_64/-m32 with --enable-64-bit-bfd, compilation fails
with:

src/gdb/dwarf2read.c: In instantiation of ‘gdb::array_view<const unsigned char> get_gdb_index_contents_from_section(objfile*, T*) [with T = dwarf2_per_objfile]’:
src/gdb/dwarf2read.c:6266:54: required from here
src/gdb/dwarf2read.c:6192:37: error: narrowing conversion of ‘section->dwarf2_section_info::size’ from ‘bfd_size_type {aka long long unsigned int}’ to ‘size_t {aka unsigned int}’ inside { } [-Werror=narrowing]
return {section->buffer, section->size};
~~~~~~~~~^~~~

This fixes it.

gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-12-04 Pedro Alves <***@redhat.com>

* dwarf2read.c (get_gdb_index_contents_from_section): Use
gdb::make_array_view.

Woops, thanks, LGTM.
Pushed, thanks.

Thanks,
