No. But I meant to look into this more carefully with a view to
disabling the other checking within QEMU and speed things up a tad. It
seems to me that the explicit checking with each memory write ought to
only be necessary on architectures like x86 that don't architecturally
require a flush insn to be used.
I can drop this fragment if necessary for patch acceptance, however.
