Steven Rostedt e71e99c294 x86, function-graph: only save return values on x86_64
Impact: speed up

The return to handler portion of the function graph tracer should only
need to save the return values. The caller already saved off the
registers that the callee can modify. The returning function already
saved the registers it modified. When we call our own trace function
it too will save the registers that the callee must restore.

There's no reason to save off anything more that the registers used
to return the values.

Note, I did a complete kernel build with this modification and the
function graph tracer running on x86_64.
