Hi Christophe,
Thanks for your work enabling DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS on powerpc. Sorry for the late review on this series, but I have a few comments below.

In order to implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, change ftrace_caller()
to handle LIVEPATCH the same way as frace_caller_regs().

I think we also need to save r1 into pt_regs so that the stack pointer is available in the callbacks.

Other than that, a few minor nits below...
