	 * AAPCS64 supplies the first 8 arguments in registers but since
	 * the first argument is the syscall #, we only have room for 7
	 * arguments.  Thus if the syscall uses all 8 arguments, the last
	 * argument will have been placed on the stack.  Rather than
	 * complicating the kernel syscall code to deal with that, we fixup
	 * things here.
	 *
	 * First we move the syscall number to x17 freeing a register.
	 * Then we move the rest of the arguments to their proper register.
	 * Finally, load x7 from the stack.
	 *
	 * Now everything looks as if the syscall wrapper was directly called.
	 * (unless it was for pipe, fork, vfork, ptrace, or __clone).
