IIUC this means that patch 1 alone is broken, and presumably this patch should
have been part of it?

As mentioned on patch 1 I'd prefer we solved this through indirection, which
would avoid the need for this and would make things more robust generally by
keeping the unusual calling convention private to the patch-site and regular
trampoline.
