Puranjay Mohan 720d93b60a libbpf: USDT arm arg parsing support
Parsing of USDT arguments is architecture-specific; on arm it is
relatively easy since registers used are r[0-10], fp, ip, sp, lr,
pc. Format is slightly different compared to aarch64; forms are

- "size @ [ reg, #offset ]" for dereferences, for example
  "-8 @ [ sp, #76 ]" ; " -4 @ [ sp ]"
- "size @ reg" for register values; for example
  "-4@r0"
- "size @ #value" for raw values; for example
  "-8@#1"

Add support for parsing USDT arguments for ARM architecture.

To test the above changes QEMU's virt[1] board with cortex-a15
CPU was used. libbpf-bootstrap's usdt example[2] was modified to attach
to a test program with DTRACE_PROBE1/2/3/4... probes to test different
combinations.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
