That's a no-go from my side from 2 reasons:
	1) You add burden in review. I have to make sure that every new code 
you add and make sure you don't get the locking wrong. Common code makes 
easier for that
	2) Most of features added to Arm that already coming from x86 are 
usually consolidated.

So to make clear, the current state:
