Is the following correct ?

NESTED(memset, 16, ra)
        PTR_ADDU        sp, sp, -16
        LONG_S          a0,  8(sp)
        LONG_S          ra, 16(sp)
        jal             __fill_user
        LONG_L          v0,  8(sp)
        LONG_L          ra, 16(sp)
        PTR_ADDU        sp, sp, 16
        jr              ra
END(memset)

I know it doesn't respect any mips ABI but in this case do
we really care ?

thanks.
