  This is in preparation for deleting deprecated_add_core_fns and
related code.

As a side-effect, this makes it possible to read NetBSD/ARM
core files on non-NetBSD/ARM platforms, subject to PR corefiles/25638.

I have removed this comment:
-  /* This is ok: we're running native...  */
Since we are using the gdbarch from the regcache, we should be
guaranteed to be calling the right function here, so it shouldn't
matter whether we are running native.

Tested by reading a NetBSD/ARM core file on Linux/x86-64 and NetBSD/ARM;
the "info registers" output matches the one from the system GDB.

Thanks, this looks good to me, but I would appreciate if Kamil to take a quick
look as well.

I noted some nits below (no need to send another version just for them).

I think it would be nice to provide the link in the comment (a permalink,
in case the file ever moves):

Can you add some empty lines between each separate condition?  I find this
looks too much like if/else if.

I would encourage you to use a regcache_map instead.  It's a bit simpler to
work with, and if NetBSD copies the same structure out as part of the
sigcontext on the signal stack, you can reuse the regcache_map in your
signal frame unwinder.  I've updated the arm, aarch64, and risc-v FreeBSD
architectures to use this if you want to see a reference on how to use a
map, e.g. from arm-fbsd-tdep.c:

/* Register maps.  */

static const struct regcache_map_entry arm_fbsd_gregmap[] =
  {
    { 13, ARM_A1_REGNUM, 4 }, /* r0 ... r12 */
    { 1, ARM_SP_REGNUM, 4 },
    { 1, ARM_LR_REGNUM, 4 },
    { 1, ARM_PC_REGNUM, 4 },
    { 1, ARM_PS_REGNUM, 4 },
    { 0 }
  };

...

/* Register set definitions.  */

const struct regset arm_fbsd_gregset =
  {
    arm_fbsd_gregmap,
    regcache_supply_regset, regcache_collect_regset
  };

...

/* Implement the "iterate_over_regset_sections" gdbarch method.  */

static void
arm_fbsd_iterate_over_regset_sections (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
				       iterate_over_regset_sections_cb *cb,
				       void *cb_data,
				       const struct regcache *regcache)
{
  struct gdbarch_tdep *tdep = gdbarch_tdep (gdbarch);

  cb (".reg", ARM_FBSD_SIZEOF_GREGSET, ARM_FBSD_SIZEOF_GREGSET,
      &arm_fbsd_gregset, NULL, cb_data);


The native target is also able to use the regcache_map, e.g. from
arm-fbsd-nat.c:

/* Fetch register REGNUM from the inferior.  If REGNUM is -1, do this
   for all registers.  */

void
arm_fbsd_nat_target::fetch_registers (struct regcache *regcache, int regnum)
{
  pid_t pid = get_ptrace_pid (regcache->ptid ());

  if (regnum == -1 || getregs_supplies (regnum))
    {
      struct reg regs;

      if (ptrace (PT_GETREGS, pid, (PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3) &regs, 0) == -1)
	perror_with_name (_("Couldn't get registers"));

      regcache->supply_regset (&arm_fbsd_gregset, regnum, &regs,
			       sizeof (regs));
    }

...

And for the signal frame unwinder in arm-fbsd-tdep.c, the single
call to trad_frame_set_reg_regmap() lets you pull in all the register
from the sigcontext in one go:

/* Implement the "init" method of struct tramp_frame.  */

static void
arm_fbsd_sigframe_init (const struct tramp_frame *self,
			struct frame_info *this_frame,
			struct trad_frame_cache *this_cache,
			CORE_ADDR func)
{
  struct gdbarch *gdbarch = get_frame_arch (this_frame);
  enum bfd_endian byte_order = gdbarch_byte_order (gdbarch);
  CORE_ADDR sp = get_frame_register_unsigned (this_frame, ARM_SP_REGNUM);
  CORE_ADDR mcontext_addr = (sp
			     + ARM_SIGFRAME_UCONTEXT_OFFSET
			     + ARM_UCONTEXT_MCONTEXT_OFFSET);
  ULONGEST mcontext_vfp_addr;

  trad_frame_set_reg_regmap (this_cache, arm_fbsd_gregmap, mcontext_addr,
			     regcache_map_entry_size (arm_fbsd_gregmap));

Thanks for the feedback; I thought about that but there are two places
in this function that make this harder -- there is an arm_apcs_32
check that affects what gets supplied for ARM_PS_REGNUM and there's a
call to gdbarch_addr_bits_remove on the PC, perhaps for the thumb bit.
So I think I cannot convert it while keeping the same semantics?

The fetch_registers implementation does share this code with my patch.

Any thoughts?
