/* read_register_bytes and write_register_bytes are generally a *BAD* idea.
   They are inefficient because they need to check for partial updates, which
   can only be done by scanning through all of the registers and seeing if the
   bytes that are being read/written fall inside of an invalid register.  [The
    main reason this is necessary is that register sizes can vary, so a simple
    index won't suffice.]  It is far better to call read_register_gen if you
   want to get at the raw register contents, as it only takes a regno as an
   argument, and therefore can't do a partial register update.  It would also
   be good to have a write_register_gen for similar reasons.

   Prior to the recent fixes to check for partial updates, both read and
   write_register_bytes always checked to see if any registers were stale, and
   then called target_fetch_registers (-1) to update the whole set.  This
   caused really slowed things down for remote targets.  */
