> The current use of the generic version results in a full stack frame
> being created for _mcount, and also a flush of the entire set of
> register windows just to grab the parent program counter.
>
> This patch fixes all of those inefficiencies.
>
> Fully regression tested on sparc*-linux and sparc64*-linux

> Please apply, thanks.
