Create a new subdirectory "reg", which contains a register definition file for each supported version of IPA. Each register definition contains the register's offset, and for parameterized registers, the stride (distance between consecutive instances of the register). Finally, it includes an all-caps printable register name. In these files, each IPA version defines an array of IPA register definition pointers, with unsupported registers defined with a null pointer. The array is indexed by the ipa_reg_id enumerated type. At initialization time, the appropriate register definition array to use is selected based on the IPA version, and assigned to a new "regs" field in the IPA structure. Extend ipa_reg_valid() so it fails if a valid register is not defined. This patch simply puts this infrastructure in place; the next will use it.

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 Restructured Text 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.
