Yes, but wasn't it you who suggested that all those users should be
converted over to the tcg_global_reg API?

There is surely some work to do, and that probably across all archs. But
the sooner we should start. dyngen-exec.h is a constant source of pain
when you try to introduce new headers or refactor existing ones. /me was
so far lacking the time to finally attack this (and instead had to add
yet another hack with the recent monitor series, see disas.h).
