Implement save_stack_trace_regs, so that stacktrace of a kprobe events can be
obtained.

Function will be useful only after having ARM64 kprobes upstreamed.
However, since there is no dependency in applying the patch, so it may be
upstreamed independently (if there is no other review comment).

I see following stack trace for kfree with this patch in one of the case.

echo stacktrace > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_options
echo "p kfree" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/enable
more /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
            bash-3868  [001] d...  2863.068271: p_kfree_0: (kfree+0x0/0x194)
            bash-3868  [001] d...  2863.068276: <stack trace>
 => kfree
 => syscall_trace_exit
 => __sys_trace_return_skipped
