The above are all OK.

I'm not sure I understand this hunk. PREFER_THUMB is no the same as
__thumb2__, so I think this needs more clarification. Why would it be
right to omit the contents of this file entirely? what provides this
API if this doesn't?
I'm not sure I like the PREFER_THUMB macro anyway: preference is not the
same as 'must be' or 'can only be'; so this is all somewhat confusing.
