Add ftrace_regs definition for x86_64 in the ftrace header to
clarify what register will be accessible from ftrace_regs.

Should add a comment that if fregs->regs.cs is set, then all of the pt_regs
is valid. And x86_32 does support ftrace_regs, it just doesn't support
having a subset of it.

But what about rbx and r1*? Only regs->cs should be care for pt_regs?
Or, did you mean "the ftrace_regs is valid"?

Oh, thanks. I'll update the comment about x86_32.

Thank you,

Yeah, on x86_64 ftrace_regs uses regs.cs to denote if it is valid or not:

static __always_inline struct pt_regs *
arch_ftrace_get_regs(struct ftrace_regs *fregs)
{
	/* Only when FL_SAVE_REGS is set, cs will be non zero */
	if (!fregs->regs.cs)
		return NULL;
	return &fregs->regs;
}
