  Max size set to 64bits, which I determined using frv_register_type()

Tested on a --enable-targets=all build using make check with board files
unix and native-gdbserver.

I do not have a FRV machine to test on.

Ok to commit?

Alan.

	* frv-linux-tdep.c (frv_linux_supply_gregset): Use FRV_MAX_REGISTER_SIZE.
	* frv-tdep.h (FRV_MAX_REGISTER_SIZE): Add.

The code here fills some gr registers with zeros,

  /* gr0 always contains 0.  Also, the kernel passes the TBR value in
     this slot.  */
  regcache_raw_supply (regcache, first_gpr_regnum, zerobuf);

  /* Fill gr32, ..., gr63 with zeros. */
  for (regi = first_gpr_regnum + 32; regi <= last_gpr_regnum; regi++)
    regcache_raw_supply (regcache, regi, zerobuf);

the size of these gr registers are know, 8 bytes.  It won't be changed.
We can do,

 gdb_byte zerobuf[8] = { 0 };

the code is still easy to read.  If you really dislike magic number (IMO, 8
is not a magic number in this context), you can define FRR_GR_REGISTER_SIZE.

Alternatively, you can add a new regache api, regcache_raw_supply_zero.
Many places can use this api, and some uses of MAX_REGISTER_SIZE can be
removed too, for example,

  regcache_raw_supply (regcache, MIPS_ZERO_REGNUM, zerobuf);
