Ironically, server, cloud, and VMs all benefit the most from the
feature. VMs are the least likely to run into kernel related
regressions, followed by bare metal servers. Workstation is more
likely. And maybe ARM and IoT related products even more likely (I'm
basing that on the much wider assortment of hardware, less
standardization, very active development, and less testing coverage).
