* frame-unwind.c (struct frame_unwind_table, frame_unwind_init) (frame_unwind_prepend_unwinder, frame_unwind_append_sniffer) (frame_unwind_find_by_frame): Re-implement the unwind code so that it can both prepend and append sniffers. Replace frame_unwind_register_unwinder with frame_unwind_prepend_unwinder. * tramp-frame.c (tramp_frame_append): Use frame_unwind_prepend_unwinder. * frame-unwind.h (frame_unwind_prepend_unwinder): Replace frame_unwind_register_unwinder. * tramp-frame.h (tramp_frame_prepend_unwinder): Rename tramp_frame_append. * tramp-frame.c (tramp_frame_prepend_unwinder): Update. * mips-linux-tdep.c (mips_linux_init_abi, mips_linux_init_abi) (mips_linux_init_abi): Update.
