Add support for "orig_eax" pseudo register on Linux/x86.
* i386-linux-tdep.c: Include "inferior.h". (i386_linux_register_name, i386_linux_register_byte, i386_linux_register_raw_size): New functions. (i386_linux_write_pc): New function. * config/i386/tm-linux.h (I386_LINUX_ORIG_EAX_REGNUM): New define. (NUM_REGS, MAX_NUM_REGS, REGISTER_BYTES, REGISTER_NAME, REGISTER_BYTE, REGISTER_RAW_SIZE): Define to deal with additional register. (i386_linux_register_name, i386_linux_register_byte, i386_linux_register_raw_size): New prototypes. (TARGET_WRITE_PC): New define. (i386_linux_write_pc): New prototype.
