/*
 *        
 * The behavior in this file is tightly coupled with how the linux kernel sets things up
 * on the stack before calling us.
 *
 * Currently fs/binfmt_flat.c (for STACK_GROWS_UP) and arch/i960/kernel/process.c
 * build things so that a pointer to argc is left in g13 by start_thread().
 *
 * ^
 * |                        <- sp somewhere around here, after being aligned.
 * |        
 * |envp    -> envp[0]
 * |argv    -> argv[0]
 * |argc                    <- g13
 *
 * A complete picture of how things are set up can be seen in the comments of
 * create_flat_tables_stack_grows_up in fs/binfmt_flat.c
 *
 * I believe having to use this register could probably be avoided.
