It creates pt_regs on the stack, so the trampolines do:

	push $arch_rethook_trampoline
	push %rsp
	pushf
	sub $24, %rsp /* cs, ip, orig_ax */
	push %rdi
	...
	push %r15

That means that if anybody looks at regs->ss, it'll find
$arch_rethook_trampoline, which isn't a valid segment descriptor, or am
I just really bad at counting today?

I'm thinking you want a copy of __KERNEL_DS in that stack slot, not a
function pointer.
