In the process of adding support for a fourth class of registers (to handle
condition codes more explicitly in x86), I wound up wading through a bunch
of confusing register-handling code.  In the process of trying to figure
out what was going on, I figured I would write up some documentation, in
part so that you all could look at what I think I figured out and tell me
if I got it right.  (Korey had done a write-up earlier on register
indexing, but it wasn't totally comprehensive, so I decided to start over.)

The new page is here: http://gem5.org/Register_Indexing

Please take a look and provide some feedback (or just edit the page
directly), particularly if you see anything there that's not accurate.

Thanks,

Steve
