magic numbers need a comment in .c (not only in commit log)
Also I would combine them into
struct { const char *regname, int index } and
merge with x86_64_regs_table array
and would use something like offsetof(struct pt_regs, di) / 8
instead of hard coding.

In general patch 2 and 3 are in wrong order.
Generic 3 should come first. Otherwise patch 2 introduces things
that no one is using.
