Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 04/19] bpf: refactor "check_reg_arg" to eliminate code redundancy

There are a few "regs[regno]" here are there across "check_reg_arg", this
patch factor it out into a simple "reg" pointer. The intention is to
simplify code indentation and make the later patches in this set look
cleaner.
