Move the BPF return value register from x7 to x8, freeing x7 for use as an argument register. AAPCS64 designates x8 as the indirect result location register; it is caller-saved and not used for argument passing, making it a suitable home for BPF_REG_0. This is a prerequisite for stack argument support, which needs x5-x7 to pass arguments 6-8 to native kfuncs following the AAPCS64 calling convention.
