Is it guaranteed that an active SM can't change a GID prefix?
Especially if we're using a GID at an index != 0?  In other words, is
this change definitely 100 percent safe?

Also I assume this change is coming from performance tuning.  For
patches like this it is always helpful to include hard data like "this
gives a speedup of X on test Y on system Z."

Thanks...
