There is a typo here, a space is missing between riscv-linux-tdep.o
and glibc-tdep.o.

Otherwise this looks great.  I tested it on riscv64-linux and saw no
new problems.  I also tested with riscv-tests/debug against openocd,
and almost everything that failed before is now passing.  There are
two tests that fail because riscv-tests/debug doesn't know how to
parse the new {float...double...} string output for FP registers.
There are two tests that fail for a 32-bit target with
    (gdb) p/x fox = "This little piggy went to the market."
    p/x fox = "This little piggy went to the market."^M
    /scratch/jimw/openocd/fsf-gdb/riscv-gnu-toolchain/build/../riscv-gdb/gdb/regcac\
    he.c:298: internal-error: void
regcache::restore(readonly_detached_regcache*): \
    Assertion `src != NULL' failed.^M
And the same tests fail for a 64-bit target with a timeout.  That may
only be one problem.  This should not prevent the XML register set
support from going in now, and we can worry about debugging these
problems later.  Even with the failures this is a major improvement
over what we had before.
