Hi Paul, This patch set fixes minor issues I noticed while reading your recent updates. Apart from the changes, I'd like you to mention in the answer to Quick Quiz 9.43 that modern Intel CPUs don't execute x86_64 instructions directly, but decode them into uOPs (via MOP) and keep them in a uOP cache [1]. So the execution cycle is not necessarily corresponds to instruction count, but heavily depends on the behavior of the microarch, which is not predictable without actually running the code.
