OK.

However, I have decided to hold off on the reliability checks until we have the right
structure in the unwind code. I am also trying to address the question of reliability
with a single FP check in my FP validation series.

So, for now, I will remove the reliability checks part of the patch series.

Thanks for the review though. It will be useful when I revisit this in the future and
resend.

Thanks.
