ip/r12 for AArch32 and x7 for AArch64 is used to indicate whether or not the stop has been signalled from syscall entry or syscall exit. This means that: - Any writes by the tracer to this register during the stop are ignored/discarded. - The actual value of the register is not available during the stop, so the tracer cannot save it and restore it later. Right now, these registers are clobbered in tracehook_report_syscall. This change moves this logic to gpr_get and compat_gpr_get where registers are copied into a user-space buffer. This will allow to change these registers and to introduce a new NT_ARM_PRSTATUS command to get the full set of registers.

This might be a reasonable cleanup even if the extra regset isn't
introduced: it makes it clear that we're not changing the user registers
here, just the tracer's view of them.
I'm assuming it doesn't break tracing anywhere else. I can't think of
anything it would break just now, but I haven't spent much time looking
into it.
Can you not just unconditionally back up and restore regs[7] here? e.g.
saved_reg = uregs->regs[7];
switch (target->ptrace_message) {
case PTRACE_EVENTMSG_SYSCALL_ENTRY:
case PTRACE_EVENTMSG_SYSCALL_EXIT:
uregs->regs[7] = target->ptrace_message;
}
ret = membuf_write(...);
uregs->regs[7] = saved_reg;

Can this be condensed too, say by introducing a wrapper for compat_get_user_reg() that does the fudging on r12?
