Re: [RFA] remove ALPHA_FP_REGNUM


Even worse than other ports, this was some bogus non-architectural
register that sort of corresponds to the dwarf2 CFA concept, but
hasn't actually been set to anything useful in who knows how long.

So I've removed it entirely. Ok?

Almost.


	* alpha-tdep.h (ALPHA_NUM_REGS): Decrement.
	(ALPHA_FP_REGNUM): Remove.
	(ALPHA_UNIQUE_REGNUM): Decrement.
	* alpha-tdep.c (alpha_register_name): Remove vfp entry.
	(alpha_cannot_fetch_register): Remove ALPHA_FP_REGNUM.
	(alpha_cannot_store_register): Likewise.
	* alphabsd-nat.c (fetch_inferior_registers): Don't set FP_REGNUM.
	* alpha-nat.c (supply_gregset): Likewise.
	* alphanbsd-tdep.c (fetch_core_registers): Likewise.

"vfp" should be replaced with "" leaving a hole in the register space. Otherwize the layout of the remote protocol buffer gets changed and doing that breaks compatibility with existing remote alpha targets (yes, this shouldn't happen).


Otherwize ok.
