Remove some unnecessary inferior_ptid setting/restoring when fetching/storing registers
Now that the to_fetch_registers, to_store_registers and to_prepare_to_store target methods don't rely on the value of inferior_ptid anymore, we can remove a bunch of now unnecessary setting and restoring of inferior_ptid. The asserts added recently in target_fetch_registers and target_store_registers, which validate that inferior_ptid matches the regcache's ptid, must go away. It's the whole point of this effort, to not require inferior_ptid to have a particular value when calling these functions. One thing that I noticed is how sol-thread.c's ps_lgetregs and friends use the current value of inferior_ptid instead of what's passed as argument (ph->ptid), unlike proc-service.c's versions of the same functions. Is it expected? I left it like this in the current patch, but unless there's a good reason for it to be that way, I guess we should make it use the parameter. gdb/ChangeLog: * fbsd-tdep.c (fbsd_corefile_thread): Don't set/restore inferior_ptid. * proc-service.c (ps_lgetregs, ps_lsetregs, ps_lgetfpregs, ps_lsetfpregs): Likewise. * regcache.c (regcache_raw_update, regcache_raw_write): Likewise. * sol-thread.c (ps_lgetregs, ps_lsetregs, ps_lgetfpregs, ps_lsetfpregs): Likewise. * target.c (target_fetch_registers, target_store_registers): Remove asserts.
