Eh, not this specific part of what is changing in v2022.09 - this will
just allow us to close timing using higher clock rates. But another
change that is landing in v2022.09 will (see patch 4/9). Performance is
not going to be great, but 32 bit devices will work again... We've got
some more stuff in the works that should help on the performance front,
so hopefully that makes life easier for pcie graphics cards.
soonTM on that one though ;)

Thanks,
Conor.
