obsolete comment in m68klinux-nat.c...

[Joel Brobecker]

Andreas,

We're trying to cleanup a bit the ARI output, and one of the macros
that was deprecated and now is no longer used (FETCH_INFERIOR_REGISTERS)
is only mentioned in a comment inside m68klinux-nat.c.

/* FIXME: This duplicates code from `inptrace.c'.  The problem is that we
   define FETCH_INFERIOR_REGISTERS since we want to use our own versions
   of {fetch,store}_inferior_registers that use the GETREGS request.  This
   means that the code in `infptrace.c' is #ifdef'd out.  But we need to
   fall back on that code when GDB is running on top of a kernel that
   doesn't support the GETREGS request.  */

I can see that the duplication is still there, but I think that things
might have changed quite a bit since the FIXME was written.  It looks
like you are maintaining GDB on that platform, so I was wondering if
you could take a look at the comment and maybe update it a bit?

Thank you!

The situation is no different from i386-linux-nat.c, which can get away
without such a comment.  I'll remove it and simplify fetch_register and
store_register along the way.
