For the regcache_raw_read_unsigned, I am not agres with it.

void
regcache_raw_read_unsigned (struct regcache *regcache, int regnum,
			    ULONGEST *val)
{
  gdb_byte *buf;
  gdb_assert (regcache != NULL);
  gdb_assert (regnum >= 0 && regnum < regcache->descr->nr_raw_registers);
  buf = alloca (regcache->descr->sizeof_register[regnum]);
  regcache_raw_read (regcache, regnum, buf);
  (*val) = extract_unsigned_integer
	     (buf, regcache->descr->sizeof_register[regnum],
	      gdbarch_byte_order (regcache->descr->gdbarch));
}

It just add a "extract_unsigned_integer".  For this code, it in
i386-linux-tdep.c.  We know that I386_EAX_REGNUM is 32 bits.  So we
don't need extract_unsigned_integer to set anything.

Thanks,
Hui
