This an extremely verbose way of saying that __SIZEOF_POINTER__ is the
right value to use...
Just drop the change here. The code is better without this indirection.

The comments (even just oneliners) will become increasingly useful as
the logic here grows.

You should use t's here, not a's. What we are doing here is temporary
and not constructing arguments to a function. Furthermore we want to
preserve the a's where possible to avoid spilling the parameters.
Finally, the symbols should have an .L_ prefix to make the local symbols.
It really doesn't matter now, but will when you're retrofitting elf
metadata to asm code to make livepatching work. (I'm doing this on x86
and it would have been easier if people had written the code nicely the
first time around.)
