If so, let us keep collect_register_unsigned field.

That is what I want to avoid...  for the software single step routines
in two sides (GDB and GDBserver), I don't want to see that regcache is
used in one side while frame is used in the other side.  regcache should
be used in both sides.

Sorry, I don't like the patch as is.  I plan to change gdbarch method
software_single_step to something like this,

F:VEC (CORE_ADDR) *:software_single_step:struct regcache *regcache:regcache

it returns a set of address on which GDB can insert software single step
breakpoint.
