I think this is wrong. We need to differentiate between ftrace_caller()
and ftrace_regs_caller() here, and only return pt_regs if coming in
through ftrace_regs_caller() (i.e., FL_SAVE_REGS is set).

Should we use that helper here? regs_set_return_ip() also updates some
other state related to taking interrupts and I don't think it makes
sense for use with ftrace.
