What's the plan for merging the gdb changes?

Using 'c' as the prefix is a bit confusing here, as 'cr0' is usually used to
refer to the CR0 field of CR.

Speaking of which, I don't see CR here? Or is it somewhere above in the ... ?

Maybe the prefix could be 'c_' ?

Or do other arches already use 'c' as the prefix?

Otherwise looks good.
