In the end I went for this version.  Although the plain .cfi_register
thing seemed to work for the reduced testcase, it caused the original
one to segfault.  The unwinder was copying the sp's GRPtr from the old
context to the new one, but since there was no "real" sp save slot
to use, this GRPtr ended up being the local tmp_sp variable from
uw_update_context_1.  We'd then end up using tmp_sp after the
function had exited.

The .cfi_escape is safe because we're forced to calculate a value
rather than a pointer.  (Which I guess is why you suggested it --
was a bit slow on the uptake.)

As mentioned on the gcc@ thread, gdb can't currently handle this.
But (a) it can't handle the current situation either and
(b) it sounds from Tom's message that later gdbs will cope,
so I think this patch is a strict improvement.

Tested on mips64-linux-gnu, mips-sde-elf and various other mips*-elf targets.
Applied.  I'll get back to the unwinder patch once 4.8 is open.
