[PATCH v1 3/4] powerpc/ftrace: Have arch_ftrace_get_regs() return NULL unless FL_SAVE_REGS is set

When FL_SAVE_REGS is not set we get here via ftrace_caller()
which doesn't save all registers.
ftrace_caller() explicitely clears regs.msr, so we can rely
on it to know where we come from. We don't expect MSR register
to be 0 at all when involving ftrace.
