- add the useful space and control registers to struct reg
- update process_{read,write}_regs accordingly
- use MID_HPPA in core dumps.
- dump the fp regs into cores.
- add single stepping support from OpenBSD.
- stop gcc emitting stuff that HPUX requires
- don't use splhigh() in MCOUNT_ENTER as a call to _mcount will be
generated at the moment. Disable interrupts in hardware instead.
- Fix _PROF_PROLOGUE to save/restore all the register args when calling
_mcount.
- Fixup LEAF_ENTRY to dtrt (I think) in the GPROF case.
- Provide LEAF_ENTRY_NOPROFILE and sprinkle its use where i) profiling
causes problems, e.g. trap handlers, and ii) where it just doesn't
make sense, e.g. start.
This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
types. C99 requires that these definitions promote to (signed/unsigned)
integer the same way as the types the definition is for. And since
unsigned char/short fit into an "int" on all our archs and thus promote
to signed int, the definitions must not be unsigned.

called by the MI code.
Implement a way of tracking the vmspace allocated to a process and its
LWPs so that if it changes underneath us we can correct the space id in
the trapframe in pmap_activate for now.
An example of when this happens is vfork/exec.
An exec hook is probably the way to go.
from doc/BRANCHES:
idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
