[PATCH 1/1] tracing: Introduce "pseudo registers" for FETCH_MTD_reg

[Oleg Nesterov]

The probe can dump the registers or memory, but it is not possible
to dump, say, current->pid. This patch adds the pseudo regs table,
currently it has only two methods to get current/smp_processor_id
but it can be trivially extended.

This syntax is %%pseudo-reg-name, I agree in advance with any other
naming.

Test-case: 452 == offsetof(task_struct, pid), 39 == __NR_getpid,

  # perf probe 'sys_getpid%return ret=$retval:s32 pid=+452(%%current):s32'
  # perf record -e probe:sys_getpid perl -e 'syscall 39'
  # perf --no-pager script | tail -1
	perl   586 [001]   753.102549: probe:sys_getpid: \
	(ffffffff81052c00 <- ffffffff8134d012) ret=586 pid=586
