I could in this specific case, but I do not know the real impact of the
patch. I think that if upstream used this solution, it may be because it is
best, even if both work.

In a more general way, there may be cases where a patch is needed for one
arch and not for an other, and may add complex setups to make it work in
any case. Applying patch only on failing arch would certainly ease some
cases.
