gpr2-gpr14 are always saved in ftrace_caller/ftrace_regs_caller(),
regardless of the FTRACE_WITH_REGS flags. The only difference is that
without the FTRACE_WITH_REGS flag the program status word (psw) is not
saved because collecting that is a rather expensive operation.

I used the following commands to test rethook (is that the correct
testcase?)

#!/bin/bash
cd /sys/kernel/tracing

echo 'r:icmp_rcv icmp_rcv' >kprobe_events
echo 1 >events/kprobes/icmp_rcv/enable
ping -c 1 127.0.0.1
cat trace

which gave me:

ping-686     [001] ..s1.    96.890817: icmp_rcv: (ip_protocol_deliver_rcu+0x42/0x218 <- icmp_rcv)

I applied the following patch on top of your patches to make it compile,
and rethook still seems to work:
