Subject: [PATCH] fix ARM CPSR register fetching in linux

Hi,

Current version of gdb cannot read CPSR register correctly through
ptrace(2) when debugging live process on ARM linux.  Problem is caused
by change where ARM_CPSR_REGNUM (16) was aliased to ARM_PS_REGNUM (25).

This is easy to test on ARM linux targets: just run 'info registers'.

Following patch should fix it.

        * arm-linux-tdep.h, arm-tdep.h: Changed ARM_CPSR_REGNUM to be
        correct (16) again.

Thanks,
MW
