I'm not sure I'd call that a "regression". In fact, the current
situation is that the code has a bug, but the absence of this power-
efficiency optimization, on ARM, is covering the bug itself. :-D

Anyway, zero intention to turn this into a terminology bunfight, and,
overall, I even agree with you that it's probably better that this
series go in all-together. :-)

Dario
