I can't follow the details of the address calculations in this, but I like some 
things about this change: 1. the consistency between x86 and aarch64, 2. the 
conditional argument callee_augmented is removed, 3. Using 
compiled_frame_details is nice, and 4. poisoning the unused pc and rbp addesses 
in the stack so you can find misuses quickly.
Maybe compiled_frame_details should be merged up to mainline?

src/hotspot/cpu/x86/c1_MacroAssembler_x86.cpp line 243:

> 241:     movl(Address(rsp, VMRegImpl::stack_slot_size), badRegWordVal);
> 242:   }
> 243: #endif

I like this.
