Hi Steve,
The goal was to make the trampoline not affect the values in any of the registers, so if the calling conventions ever change the code will still work. Figured it was safer and clearer just to save everything rather than assuming that the compiler's code generated for trampoline_probe_handler is going to save certain registers.

The macros in this patch are modelled after the kernel_entry and kernel_exit macros in arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S. What other elements of the pt_regs struct are of concern? The sp value will be unchanged and the pc value is going to be overwritten in the handler. Concerned about some portion of the pstate (#8 *33) not be saved/restored?

The asm-offsets.h would make the register save and restore clearer with the symbolic names. asm-offsets.h only defines S_X0-S_X7. Other defines would be needed for the rest of the general purpose registers.
