akirilov-arm opened PR #2823 from callee_saves to main:

SIMD & FP registers are now saved and restored in pairs, similarly to general-purpose registers. Also, the fix for issue #2254 has enabled us to save and to restore only the bottom 64 bits of the registers (in case of non-Baldrdash ABIs), which is the requirement from the Procedure Call Standard for the Arm 64-bit Architecture.
As for the callee-saved general-purpose registers, if a procedure needs to save and restore an odd number of them, it no longer uses store and load pair instructions for the last register.

cfallin created PR Review Comment:

A comment here to explain the strategies for both cases would make it a bit clearer, I think -- something like "The Baldrdash ABI saves whole (16-byte) clobbered vector registers, so there is no need to worry about 16-byte stack alignment. The SystemV (AAPCS) ABI saves half (8-byte) clobbered vector registers, so we round up if odd."?
