The path forward is either to move these functions to an x86-specific
file or to make arm64 work the same way. I'm not too sure about the
latter yet given the port is yet to be done. For the time being, I am
going to drop my own patch and take Arnd's patch. We can figure out
which of the two approaches to take later.
