Is orig_x0 actually useful to this API? If not, we could instead operate on
the user_pt_regs structure, and define the maximum offset in terms of sizeof
that.


I agree. I don't think the orig_x0 field should be exposed through this API.

I don't think we need these #defines.

These are used in the REG_OFFSET_NAME macro. This is all borrowed from arch/arm/ code. I didn't see a need to redesign it.
