[RFA][PATCH v4 5/5] PowerPC: Exploit dynamic core regset sections

- Subject: [RFA][PATCH v4 5/5] PowerPC: Exploit dynamic core regset sections
- References: <87zju3intq dot fsf at br87z6lw dot de dot ibm dot com>
Use a dynamic iterator function for enumerating the supported core
regset sections on a PowerPC target. Compared to the previous approach
of selecting one out of six static lists, this simplifies the code.
2013-07-03 Andreas Arnez <arnez@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* ppc-linux-tdep.c (ppc_linux_vsx_regset_sections): Remove array.
(ppc_linux_vmx_regset_sections): Likewise.
(ppc_linux_fp_regset_sections): Likewise.
(ppc64_linux_vsx_regset_sections): Likewise.
(ppc64_linux_vmx_regset_sections): Likewise.
(ppc64_linux_fp_regset_sections): Likewise.
(ppc_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections): New function.
(ppc_linux_init_abi): Remove all invocations of
set_gdbarch_core_regset_sections; instead, call
set_gdbarch_iterate_over_regset_sections.
