--- Comment #5 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
AArch64 uses a regular global data symbol to store the reference value. This
requires an additional indirection (longer dependency chain, potential wasted
cache line). It's an improvement from a security perspective, but has its
downsides.
