Ah, I see it.

I'll note that the GETRA/PC thing can be made to work with any helper.  It's
just a matter of passing down the outermost helper's retaddr to
cpu_restore_state.  C.f. target-alpha's dynamic_excp/arith_excp functions.

So in theory there's no need for the accessfn to require storing the pc first.
