RFA: Small fix to valops.c (value_assign)


This causes some spurious register reads (sometimes to a invalid
register number) on some targets when reading fields of typed registers
that are not on the first byte of the register.

+       * valops.c (value_assign): Adjust the length to take into

        * values.c (value_primitive_field): Copy VALUE_REGNO as well.
        With typed registers we may have the location information in this field,
        in addition to VALUE_ADDRESS (which was already being copied).
