If it comes down to not trusting calling a stub, I'll still keep the stub
logic in, and just add the following:
If we don't call the stub, then there is no point in having the stub at
all, and we should just compare to a constant value, e.g. 0x1UL. As far
as I can recall, comparing with a small immediate constant is more efficient
than comparing with a loaded value on many architectures.

Thanks,

Mathieu
