From a struct pt_regs, which in UML has a particular structure due to the 
existance of SKAS and TT modes, we must extract all those infos.

Those defines are simply wrappers from some UML names (applying to pt_regs) to 
UML internal names (applying to uml_pt_regs, which is a union whose 
definition is known also by UML *_user.c and similar files).

Then, what's your doubt exactly?
