I'm a bit concerned that this will end up filtering down to distros and
tanking crypto performance for the entire lifespan of the releases, so
I'd rather fix it if I can.

A quick additional test reveals an issue in the uneven misaligned
splits. (the may-sleep may reveal an extra bug, but there's at least one
with uneven/misaligned.)

By all means disable vmx ctr if I don't get an answer to you in a
timeframe you are comfortable with, but I am going to at least try to
have a look.

Daniel
