It's certainly called on arm64, per a warning I just hacked in:

... and I couldn't immediately spot why 32-bit arm would be
different.
Hmm, I actually meant both arm64 and ARM.
Marc looked into this at my request a while ago, and I had a look
myself as well at the time, and IIRC, we both concluded that we don't
hit that code path. Darn.
Yes, I remember checking this. Obviously, I need a new pair of
