Shadow Registers used by interruption handler code
TOC enable bit 1
=========================================================================
The PA-RISC architecture defines 7 registers as "shadow registers".
Those are used in RETURN FROM INTERRUPTION AND RESTORE instruction to reduce
the state save and restore time by eliminating the need for general register
