	 * Reshuffle regs so that all of any of the entry instructions
	 * will preserve enough state.
	 *
	 * A really nice entry sequence would be:
	 *  pushl %edx
	 *  pushl %ecx
	 *  movl  %esp, %ecx
	 *
	 * Unfortunately, naughty Android versions between July and December
	 * 2015 actually hardcode the traditional Linux SYSENTER entry
	 * sequence.  That is severely broken for a number of reasons (ask
	 * anyone with an AMD CPU, for example).  Nonetheless, we try to keep
	 * it working approximately as well as it ever worked.
	 *
	 * This link may eludicate some of the history:
	 *   https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/q/Iac3295376d61ef83e713ac9b528f3b50aa780cd7
	 * personally, I find it hard to understand what's going on there.
	 *
	 * Note to future user developers: DO NOT USE SYSENTER IN YOUR CODE.
	 * Execute an indirect call to the address in the AT_SYSINFO auxv
	 * entry.  That is the ONLY correct way to make a fast 32-bit system
	 * call on Linux.  (Open-coding int $0x80 is also fine, but it's
	 * slow.)
