Hi WIll, Mark, Ping on this series. Can you please check? Is the refreshed patch OK?

Introducing perf_regs_load function, which is going to be used for dwarf unwind test in following patches. It takes single argument as a pointer to the regs dump buffer and populates it with current registers values, as expected by the perf built-in unwinding test.
