We have properly tested this code and verified it works. It's just that
we didn't upstream the whole series yet since it's too big. Almost 100
ICL patches already made it to the list already, and about 60 were
merged, but the specific patch that uses that table is not here yet.
I'll take the blame for missing that patch from this series.
