  1. We cannot use xRAX as a return value register when using call_c, it will be "restored" after the c function returns.
  2. div64 and div32 sets xRDX, so even if xRDX is a callee-saved register, we still need to save & restore it.

I think the restore of RAX and RDX in the case of function call is a bad idea, as they are the return registers. I'm fine with the current workaround, but it should be note that we have an small optimisation oportunity here.

But we need to sync RAX and RDX from xEmu to Dynarec after the call, is there a better way to do it?

I'm still unsure. Will need to study some dump to see how (in)efficient calls are.
