The use of `store_unsigned_integer' and `extract_unsigned_integer' unconditionally in all cases rather than when actual data occupies a part of the data quantity exchanged with `ptrace' makes code perhaps marginally slower, however I think avoiding it is not worth code obfuscation it would cause. If this turns out unfounded, then there should be no problem with optimizing this code later. gdb/ PR gdb/22286 * linux-nat-trad.c (linux_nat_trad_target::fetch_register): Also handle registers whose width is not a multiple of PTRACE_TYPE_RET.
