When dwarf stacks are collected jointly with user specified register
set using --user-regs option like below the full register context is
still captured on a sample:

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=IP,SP,BP -- matrix.gcc.g.O3

  188143843893585 0x6b48 [0x4f8]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4002): 23828/23828: 0x401236 period: 1363819 addr: 0x7ffedbdd51ac

  .... DI    0x0

   ... thread: stack_test2.g.O:23828
   ...... dso: /root/abudanko/stacks/stack_test2.g.O3

After applying the change suggested in the patch the sample data contain
only user specified register values:

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=BP -- matrix.gcc.g.03

  188368474305373 0x5e40 [0x470]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4002): 23839/23839: 0x401236 period: 1260507 addr: 0x7ffd3d85e96c
  ... FP chain: nr:0
  ... user regs: mask 0x1c0 ABI 64-bit
  .... BP    0x401260
  .... SP    0x7ffd3d85cc20
  .... IP    0x401236
  ... ustack: size 1024, offset 0x58
   . data_src: 0x5080021
   ... thread: stack_test2.g.O:23839
   ...... dso: /root/abudanko/stacks/stack_test2.g.O3

IP and SP registers (dwarf_regs) are collected anayways regardless of
the --user-regs option value provided from the command line:

  -g call-graph dwarf,K                         full_regs
  -g call-graph dwarf,K --user-regs=user_regs	user_regs | dwarf_regs
  --user-regs=user_regs                         user_regs

Changes in v3:
- avoid changes in platform specific header files

Changes in v2:
- implemented dwarf register set to avoid corrupted trace 
  when --user-regs option value omits IP,SP
