Here too. The above is just garbage.

Let's not fill in garbarge registers. The above is useless on return of a
function. Heck, adding zeros is better than this. But really, we need to
have ftrace regs to have some kind of flag that can state what it holds.
Right now I see three states:

 1 - holds all regs and pt_regs can be retrieved
 2 - only holds function entry regs (parameters and stack)
 3 - only holds function exit regs (return value and stack)

Don't save anything else unless needed.
