Sure. But then I have to like write a Changelog for it... :/

Subject: x86,ftrace: Shrink ftrace_regs_caller() by one byte

'Optimize' ftrace_regs_caller. Instead of comparing against an
immediate, the more natural way to test for zero on x86 is: 'test
%r,%r'.

  48 83 f8 00             cmp    $0x0,%rax
  74 49                   je     226 <ftrace_regs_call+0xa3>

  48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax
  74 49                   je     225 <ftrace_regs_call+0xa2>
