It may not work.

No matter how we change regoffset_table, when get_arch_regstr()
get a register number 4, how can it know whether we are looking
for x86_32 register and return $stack or return %si for x86_64?

The fundamental problem is: we need a way to map dwarf's register
number to register names so uprobe know which register we are
looking for, but the API we designed for this can't distinguish
the sub ISAs dwarf are using.

Thanks.
