forgot to mention... yes, this matches the fact we use a single "view"
for all threads, and we get it via task_user_regset_view(dump_task).
But this change (imo) adds even more confusion, and without the next patch
the logic looks "obviously wrong", becauase PR_REG_SIZE/etc look at
dumper_thread->cs while task_user_regset_view() checks thread flags.
Anyway I fail to understand these macros... Say, PR_REG_SIZE(S). Can't we
kill it and use regsets[0].n * regsets[0].size instead ? These numbers
should match whatever we do, if we call ->get().
