You'd still need to deal with distinct returns for shrink-wrapped code
when the full (return) expands to
ldm sp, {regs..., pc}
The shrink wrapped version would always be
bx lr
There are also cases (eg on v4T) where the Thumb return sequence
sometimes has to pop into a lo register before branching to that return
address, eg
pop {r3}
bx r3
in order to get interworking.
R.
