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:
