This is a second try for CL 548317. When the go compiler compiles a function it saves the frame pointer on the stack and pushes the stack pointer. Thus it is safe to restore from the stack. For assembly function still use the mathematical based restore as users might use the frame pointer as scratch space. The results are very good, file size down 0.8% codesize down 2%.
