Ultimately I changed this based on the feedback from Linus
(Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/CAHk-=wheru6rEfzC2wuO9k03PRF6s3nhxryCAnwR5bzKwPV2ww@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/).

no relation to speculative execution.

I have no preference for one over the other, so I'll just change it to
however it is desired.

It would just be great to have a (somewhat) consistent way so I can prepare
the rest of the patch sets accordingly.
