Dang, replied on an old version.
Since this is logically a tail call, could we simply be using br x16 or
br x17 for this?
The architecture makes special provision for that so that the compiler
can generate tail-calls.
This assumes that those regs aren't clobbered by any veneered function
call in the meantime, but all the calls here are local, so I don't think
that is a concern.
