Re: [PATCH 3/3] Fix various bugs in arm_record_exreg_ld_st_insn


Just internal comment nits.

This patch fixes various bugs in arm_record_exreg_ld_st_insn, and use
gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.c to test more arm instructions.

  - Set flag SINGLE_REG correctly.  In the arch reference manual,
    SING_REG is true when the bit 8 of instruction is zero.
  - Record the right D registers for instructions changing S registers.
  - Fix the order of length and address in record_buf_mem array.
  - Shift the offset by 2 instead of by 24.

This patch also fixes one internal error,

(gdb) PASS: gdb.reverse/finish-precsave.exp: BP at end of main
continue^M
Continuing.^M
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/utils.c:1072: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.^M
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,FAIL: gdb.reverse/finish-precsave.exp: run to end of main (GDB internal error)
