Subject: Don't use template for gdbpy_ref_policy
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d9faae86e6fadd0cae08fc29424551de458fefc;p=thirdparty%2Fbinutils-gdb.git

Don't use template for gdbpy_ref_policy

Now that gdb's Python types derive from PyObject, there's no need to
use a template for gdbpy_ref_policy.  This simplifies the code a tiny
bit.
