Well, we started patching 2 archs (ia64 and sparc) based on kbuild
robots failure report, and then I received other reports (still from
kbuild robots) long after the initial ones. I can't tell for sure which
archs are not implementing those functions, hence the conservative
approach taken here.

I'm fine with that, assuming it does the same thing :-).
