Here and elsewhere you're assuming you have a parameter save area.
That won't be true with ELFv2 for calls to functions like memcpy.

typedef __SIZE_TYPE__ size_t;
extern void *memcpy (void *dest, const void *src, size_t n);

void foo (void *dest, const void *src, size_t n)
{
  memcpy (dest, src, n);
}

foo:
0:	addis 2,12,.TOC.-0b at ha
	addi 2,2,.TOC.-0b at l
	.localentry	foo,.-foo
	mflr 0
	std 0,16(1)
	stdu 1,-32(1)   # <========
	bl memcpy
	nop
	addi 1,1,32
	ld 0,16(1)
	mtlr 0
	blr
