This continues to look great to me, and now has the even simpler
remaining implementation.

I'd be tempted to just pull it in for 5.13, but I guess we don't
actually have any _outstanding_ bug in this area (the bug was in our
zlib code, required -O3 to trigger, has been fixed now, and the biggy
case didn't even use "get_unaligned()").

So I guess your 5.14 timing is the right thing to do.
