Huacai Chen d3119bc985 LoongArch: Fix callchain parse error with kernel tracepoint events
In order to fix perf's callchain parse error for LoongArch, we implement
perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() which fills several necessary registers
used for callchain unwinding, including sp, fp, and era. This is similar
to the following commits.

commit b3eac0265bf6:
("arm: perf: Fix callchain parse error with kernel tracepoint events")

commit 5b09a094f2fb:
("arm64: perf: Fix callchain parse error with kernel tracepoint events")

commit 9a7e8ec0d4cc:
("riscv: perf: Fix callchain parse error with kernel tracepoint events")

Test with commands:

 perf record -e sched:sched_switch -g --call-graph dwarf
 perf report

With this patch, callchain can be parsed correctly:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
