You cannot assume that the context you have to restore is identical to
what call_from_32_regs has saved. So yes, call_from_32_regs will always
be running in 32-bit mode and will save a 32-bit context; but the
restore part needs to be able to restore any arbitrary context,
including one with a 16-bit stack and separate %ds,%es,%ss selectors.
