Now the whole subroutine is compiled for ARM and the return address has bit
0 set so that on jumping back to the caller the CPU will switch back to
Thumb-2.

Probably the return to Thumb-2 isn't needed in the cover letter solution
and it would also work to finish the subroutine in ARM instruction set.
However it looks strange to me if a function which begins with the ARM
instruction set would come to the return in Thumb-2.
