influence other architectures. Your proposal would certainly be fine for s390,
but what impact does it have on x86, arm, arm64? Will it cause performance 
regressions?

It may also have the same advantages you got on s390.

So I think that the patch as is is probably the safest choice until we have some
data from x86, arm, arm64, no?

No, using an existing API is always better than inventing a new one.

If you post the new patch series, and describe the benchmark you were using, we can reproduce it on x86.
