Leon, I pulled your tree and tested, things look good so far.

Maybe you could update that comment and add that it's for performance? This way
its clear we are different for a reason. I'd be fine adding a WARN_ON_ONCE like
you mention here. I don't think we need to fail the call but drawing attention
to it would not necessarily be a bad thing. Either way, RB/TB for me stands.
