Introduce routines for saving and restoring the context
befre/after the single step. No functional changes involved.

These will be extended later to save/restore more info about

Can't the two above be inline?
I had this discussion with Srikar and he was of the opinion that, we
should leave it as just static and let the compiler do the optimization.
