We call a C helper to save all svcpu fields into our vcpu. The C ABI states that r12 is considered volatile. However, we keep our exit handler id in r12 currently. So we need to save it away into a non-volatile register instead that definitely does get preserved across the C call. This bug usually didn't hit anyone yet since gcc is smart enough to generate code that doesn't even need r12 which means it stayed identical throughout the call by sheer luck. But we can't rely on that.
