Thanks, I pushed the series and this patch. I realized too late that I
must have been working on the branch without the fixes after your review
comments... so I added this new patch on top.

Subject: [PATCH] Address review comments for the previous series
I failed at git and missed adding/lost changes on the wrong branch, the
result being that I didn't incorporate fixes resulting from Yao's review
comments. This patch fixes that.
There are two places where we should use the unique pointer typedef, and
ChangeLog entries missing.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target-descriptions.c (struct tdesc_feature) <registers>: Use
tdesc_reg_up typedef.
(struct target_desc) <features>: Use tdesc_feature_up typedef.
