It would be better.

Hmm, yes. That is weird. If there is some reason it at least deserves a comment.

I moved it into this series because it intersected with the TLB flushing

scenarios together. But yes, it kind of straddles two areas. If we think that
bit is discussed enough, we can move it back to its original series.
