This should just become ret_from_kernel_execve(); FWIW, arm variant is
ENTRY(ret_from_kernel_execve)
        mov     why, #0                 @ not a syscall
        str     why, [r1, #S_R0]        @ ... and we want 0 in ->ARM_r0 as well
        mov     r2, #S_FRAME_SIZE
        bl      memmove                 @ copy regs to normal location; return
                                        @ value is in r0 and it's the same as
                                        @ the first argument, so r0 is unchanged.
        get_thread_info tsk             @ thread structure
        mov     sp, r0                  @ stack pointer just under pt_regs
        b       ret_slow_syscall

and AFAICS you want pretty much the same, modulo different registers - 'why'
(aka r8) seems to correspond to your x27, 'tsk' (aka r9) - to x28 and the rest
matches one-to-one: x1.. for arguments in place of r1.. and x0 for return value
(instead of r0)...
