We don't have the ksp_limit anymore, I forgot to remove the above text.

Great.

Hmm. It is the first time we use named parameters in powerpc assembly, isn't it ?
I saw when investigating userspace access that x86 is using named parameters widely.

Wondering, how would the below look like with named parameters (from __put_user_asm2_goto) ?

	stw%X1 %L0, %L1
