I'm thinking what could happen if an exception raised while the stack frame
is modified incorrectly, the exception handler will try to look at the
calling function but it can't get the previous state of stack pointer
because the stack pointer doesn't point to it and that will mess the
exception handling procedure. So we can't ignore the rules whatsoever and
we have to modify the stack frame correctly.
