[PATCH] kprobes, x86/ptrace.h: fix regs argument order for i386

From: Vamshi K Sthambamkadi
Date: Fri Aug 28 2020 - 07:36:31 EST


On i386, the order of parameters passed on regs is eax,edx,and ecx
(as per regparm(3) calling conventions).

Change the mapping in regs_get_kernel_argument(), so that arg1=ax
arg2=dx, and arg3=cx.

Running the selftests testcase kprobes_args_use.tc shows the result
as passed.
