The first instruction to be executed is the 'swi' which will cause a
call of the entry. There it needs to be handled, check for example the
pc value you're getting, it should point to the location. After handling
the swi, the pc needs to be adapted to point behind the instruction (or
whereever you like the code to go on). If the pc is not adapted, a
resume will continue on the swi and everything will start again.
r4 is also unaligned. There's no need to substract 1 but if you want to
you should substract multiple of 4.
