The "subq $8, %rsp" is for stack alignment, and whether it's emitted depends on
the parity of the number of pushes.  I have no problem with it.

The problem is that rbx and rbp are pushed.  They shouldn't be.  In a real
function, it's worse: rbx, rbp, r12, r13, r14, and r15 all get pushed
unnecessarily.  I just had a bunch of fun refactoring my big Linux entry code
rewrite to minimize the amount of pain that this issue causes.
