Subject: [PATCH 3/3] uprobes/x86: Simplify riprel_{pre,post}_xol() and make
	them similar

Ignoring the "correction" logic riprel_pre_xol() and riprel_post_xol()
are very similar but look quite differently.

1. Add the "UPROBE_FIX_RIP_AX | UPROBE_FIX_RIP_CX" check at the start
   of riprel_pre_xol(), like the same check in riprel_post_xol().

2. Add the trivial scratch_reg() helper which returns the address of
   scratch register pre_xol/post_xol need to change.

3. Change these functions to use the new helper and avoid copy-and-paste
   under if/else branches.
