I've done something very similar in the thread I posted a few years
ago.
Right so that was before spectre where a virtual call was cheaper :(
Sorry, I meant days, not years.  The whole point of the thread was the
slowdowns due to retpolines, which are the software spectre mitigation.
Oh that makes sense then. Could you post a pointer pls so
this patchset is rebased on top (there are things to
change about 4/4 but 1-3 could go in if they don't add
overhead)?
