+ 2 * xchg is more expensive than pushl + movl + popl
+
+ Beside this a neat trick is used. The calling conventions for Linux
+ tell that among the registers used for parameters %ecx and %edx need
+ not be saved. Beside this we may clobber this registers even when
+ they are not used for parameter passing.
+
+ As a result one can see below that we save the content of the %ebx
+ register in the %edx register when we have less than 3 arguments
+ (2 * movl is less expensive than pushl + popl).
+
+ Second unlike for the other registers we don't save the content of
