Again, I'd just treat this as x29. There's nothing special about the frame
pointer as far as the hardware/architecture is concerned. GAS won't even
accept it as a register name.

Surely you want 'x' instead of 'r'?

...register name 32 is `Reserved'. I don't think we should be using it here.
In fact, the PC isn't even described in that spec. Do we need to expose it
here?
