ftrace: Have the callbacks receive a struct ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs
In preparation to have arguments of a function passed to callbacks attached to functions as default, change the default callback prototype to receive a struct ftrace_regs as the forth parameter instead of a pt_regs. For callbacks that set the FL_SAVE_REGS flag in their ftrace_ops flags, they will now need to get the pt_regs via a ftrace_get_regs() helper call. If this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL. This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs that is not completely filled.
