For libdw-based callgraph sampling to work we need to sample registers.

Tested on HiFive Unmatched with a trunk version of OCaml:
These generally LGTM, but I don't have patch #2.  Sometimes that means 
they're just not targeted at the RISC-V tree, which is fine with me but 
I'm happy to take some time to look closer and take them if that's what 
you're looking for.

A cover letter can be a good bet, to describe this sort of stuff.
