Ok, but before that, a 'generic' one (non-x86 and non-ARM) used 'sparse' one,
correct?
If so, then probably need to outline it a bit more in patch comments and might
be even release notes.
At least that would be my expectations, probably hash lib maintainers need to
say what is the best way here.
The code refactoring itself - LGTM.
