Some caller-saved registers which are not defined as function arguments
in the ABI can still be passed as arguments when the kernel is compiled
with Clang. As a result, we must save and restore those registers to
prevent ftrace from clobbering them.

Shouldn't this be a separate fix? Still reading the details, but it
smells like something what should be disabled when building w/ LLVM, no?

Yes, this is a fix. My intention was indicating the dependency. So
people won't hit into trouble testing it. I can send it in a separate
series.

Thanks,
