arm64: ftrace: add save_stack_trace_regs()

Currently, enabling stacktrace of a kprobe events generates warning:

  echo stacktrace > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_options
  echo "p xhci_irq" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/enable

save_stack_trace_regs() not implemented yet.

This patch implements save_stack_trace_regs(), so that stacktrace of a
kprobe events can be obtained.

After this patch, there is no warning and we can see the stacktrace for
kprobe events in trace buffer.
