ARM: perf: add support for perf registers API
This patch implements the functions required for the perf registers API, allowing the perf tool to interface kernel register dumps with libunwind in order to provide userspace backtracing. Cc: Jean Pihet <jean.pihet@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
