It will destroy s1-s5 which are used in entry.S like these:

         REG_S s0, PT_SP(sp)
         REG_S s1, PT_STATUS(sp)
         REG_S s2, PT_EPC(sp)
         REG_S s3, PT_BADADDR(sp)
         REG_S s4, PT_CAUSE(sp)
         REG_S s5, PT_TP(sp)
...
         /*
          * MSB of cause differentiates between
          * interrupts and exceptions
          */
         bge s4, zero, 1f

...

         /*
          * Exceptions run with interrupts enabled or disabled depending 
on the
          * state of SR_PIE in m/sstatus.
          */
         andi t0, s1, SR_PIE

...

         /* Handle syscalls */
         li t0, EXC_SYSCALL
         beq s4, t0, handle_syscall

...

I also solved it in my lockdep patches, please have a look:
