DWARF register numbers and real register numbers on aarch64 are equivalent. Remove the references to the register names from Libunwind so that new registers are supported without having to add build time feature checks for each new register. The unwinder won't ask for a register that it doesn't know about and Perf will already report an error for an unknown or unrecorded register in the perf_reg_value() function so extra validation isn't needed. After this change the new VG register can be read by libunwind.

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.
