perf/sdt/x86: Add renaming logic for (missing) 8 bit registers
I found couple of events using al, bl, cl and dl registers for argument.
These are not directly accepted by uprobe_events and thus needs to be
mapped to ax, bx, cx and dx respectively.
Few ex,
/usr/bin/qemu-system-s390x
css_adapter_interrupt: 1@%bl
css_chpid_add: 1@%cl 1@%sil 1@%dl
dma_bdrv_io: 8@%rbx 8@%rbp -8@%r14 1@%al
/usr/bin/postgres
buffer__read__done: ... -1@-bash -1@%al
buffer__read__start: ... -1@%al
I don't find any sdt events using ah, bh,... registers. But I also don't
see any reason to not use them, so there might be rare events using
these registers, and if so, perf should have a renaming logic for them
too.
