td_frame is not set on a nested interrupt.  Thus, if you use td_frame and get 
an interrupt while in a syscall, statclock() would account the time as a user 
tick instead of a system tick.

Put another way, td_frame always references the user --> system trapframe, but 
td_intr_frame will reference the most recent trapframe on the stack.
