Hi!

Little-endian SH GDB:

    (gdb) set $dr0 = -1
    (gdb) info registers dr0 fr0 fr1
    dr0            -1       (raw 0xbff0000000000000)
    fr0            -1.875   (raw 0xbff00000)
    fr1            0        (raw 0x00000000)

This is correct.  Big-endian SH GDB:

    (gdb) set $dr0 = -1
    (gdb) info registers dr0 fr0 fr1
    dr0            -1       (raw 0xbff0000000000000)
    fr0            8.63634257e-41   (raw 0x0000f0bf)
    fr1            0        (raw 0x00000000)

Here, the value stored in fr0 is bogus.  This comes from the
sh_register_convert_to_virtual conversion: as the commentary says, this
should be applied in the little-endian case only.  The reasons that dr0
is displayed correctly nevertheless is due to sh_register_convert_to_raw
(erroneously) doing the same conversion backwards, too.

A similar problem exists when displaying double values loaded as part of
the program text.

Here is a patch (basically copying code from sh64-tdep.c which got this
right), and also fixes some commentary.  OK to commit?

gdb/
	sh-tdep.c (sh_register_convert_to_virtual)
	(sh_register_convert_to_raw): Add a gdbarch parameter.  Update
	all callers.  Just do a memcpy if not the little-endian case.
