This is probably a nomenclature problem, but what exactly is
kretprobe_instance::fp used for?
I ask because arm64's frame pointer lives in x29 (and is not necessarily
the same as the stack pointer at function boundaries), so the naming
is potentially misleading and possibly worth a comment or rename.
Thanks,
