I've thought about doing that, yes.  If you want, I can stick it on my todo
list.  Also, I have managed to make userret() and ast() (modulo a few commits
coming up in the next 15 minutes or so) the same across all architectures.
Do you think that given that it would be feasible to move those two functions
to sys/kern/subr_trap.c and let them be MI?

Also, as a sidenote, I think that addupc_task() should take a uniptr_t, not a
uint64_t as its second argument..
