This is what I came up with. s390 guys mentioned that I cannot simply
use the new range at this stage yet. This will need probably some other
changes but I guess we want an opt-in approach with an arch veto in general.
So what do you think about the following? Only x86 is update now and I
will split it into two parts but the idea should be clear at least.
