r3 and r5 are not used above, so no need to have them in the clobber
list.
They are used. ldrd and strd instructions always use a pair of
consecutive registers. So "ldrd r2, ..." loads into r2-r3 and "ldrd r4, ..."
loads into r4-r5.
FWIW, since we should now be enabling unified syntax everywhere, I guess 
we could probably rewrite all those ldrd/strd to the UAL 3-operand form 
- i.e. "ldrd r2, r3, [...]" - if we really cared for the extra clarity.

Robin.
