Please see the following excellent explanation from Thomas.

	https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/4/734

Especially the following words:

	So at some point we ripped out the multi target support on X86 and moved
	everything to single target delivery mode.
	
	Other architectures never supported multi target delivery either due to
	hardware restrictions or for similar reasons why X86 dropped it. There
	might be a few architectures which support it, but I have no overview at
	the moment.


thanks,
Ming
