Thanks for the public response (and to those who responded to me privately). I did not think about macro definitions and will definitely add that to my 'grep list' when finding things in the future.

Try http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/arch/x86/lib/msr-reg.S
If I can not grep out the definition of a function by its name, I will
try to grep with part of its name again, because most likely it is
created by a macro. In your case, I tried "grep safe_regs" under
arch/x86/ and got what you need.
