Yes, I will try to make some summary for further reviews.

Yes, it should be.

$ wget -q -O - http://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/bitpos3.patch|perl -lne '$pn=/^[+](?![+][+] )/;(/^x/?$done:$missing)++ if $p&&!$pn;$p=$pn;END{print "done=$done,missing=$missing";}'
done=120,missing=574
I have annotated 120 changes but still 574 changes need to be annotated.
(A few of them were commented by a suggestion for their removal etc.)
This case I call 'done', annotated:
/* Append a trace_quick instruction to EXPR, to record N bytes. */
-extern void ax_trace_quick (struct agent_expr *EXPR, int N);
+extern void ax_trace_quick (struct agent_expr *EXPR, LONGEST N);
xFIXED(Expand N to LONGEST): (ax-gdb.c:516): FUNC(ax_trace_quick): (ULONGEST to int) [(type)->length]
This case I call 'missing', not yet annotated:
long reg_r0, reg_r1, reg_r2;
- int total_len = 0;
+ LONGEST total_len = 0;
enum bfin_abi abi = bfin_abi (gdbarch);
Thanks,
Jan
