Add ftrace_partial_regs() which converts the ftrace_regs to pt_regs.
This is for the eBPF which needs this to keep the same pt_regs interface
to access registers.
Thus when replacing the pt_regs with ftrace_regs in fprobes (which is
used by kprobe_multi eBPF event), this will be used.

If the architecture defines its own ftrace_regs, this copies partial
registers to pt_regs and returns it. If not, ftrace_regs is the same as
pt_regs and ftrace_partial_regs() will return ftrace_regs::regs.

Ah, I guess this is where we pick up the lr that was set in patch 5.
Yeah, this one also copies the fregs->pc to regs->pc, mainly for bpf.
