Also according to the > analysis from Alistair, somehow the stub didn't do the job right [1]. I wasn't so much concerned about execution speed given it's on the slow path anyway but overall code size, which is one reason all those config options might be disabled. However in practice it made little to no difference as those config options already remove most of the extra code so I agree we can drop the stub.
