Yes it can all just go.  Those functions are strictly optional.

   /* Skip verify of register_convertible, invalid_p == 0 */
   /* Skip verify of register_convert_to_virtual, invalid_p == 0 */
   /* Skip verify of register_convert_to_raw, invalid_p == 0 */

If someone was silly enough to add code that blindly called them then:

   if (gdbarch->register_convert_to_virtual == 0)
     internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__,
                     "gdbarch: gdbarch_register_convert_to_virtual 
invalid");

would kick in.
