Sounds like Aarch64 code. I would love a comparison of the same
driver compiled to ARMv7t thumb code. Just for the academic
interest. Because I have heard about people running ARM32
kernels on Aarch64 hardware for this exact reason: so they can
have thumb, which is compact.

OK OK we definitely need command sequence tables in the core,
what we have now is each driver rolling its own which is looking bad.
