thanks for fixing this up Ingo! Sorry for all the trouble.

perhaps, we should just reduce the entry/exit routines to just pass
'regs' since we already have the following abstractions for callbacks:

syscall_get_nr(current, regs);
syscall_get_return_value(current, regs);

Thus, we really only need to be passing 'regs'. I was passing more information
here, to make it easier for other users of the tracepoints...

thanks,

-Jason
