How does the system know that you issued the PR? Certainly not every
PR can come to the attention of system code; PR is an instruction that
does not normally cause an interrupt and give the system the chance to
examine things. So is the inactivation only discovered when it's
needed?

The system turns on the unstack-suppression bit in the LSED. This causes a
stack-operation exception to be recognized during the unstacking process.
