Shh! nr_raw_registers == number of raw registers in the register cache
== NUM_REGS + NUM_PSEUDO_REGS on legacy targets. Just don't tell anyone
M'kay ;-)
/* FIXME: cagney/2002-05-11: Shouldn't be including pseudo-registers
in the register buffer. Unfortunatly some architectures do. */
descr->nr_cooked_registers = NUM_REGS + NUM_PSEUDO_REGS;
descr->nr_raw_registers = descr->nr_cooked_registers;
descr->sizeof_raw_register_valid_p = descr->nr_cooked_registers;
