There's not really an associated fix for this. It's more just a defensive patch: it's trying to make sure that the equivalent of the aarch64 bug doesn't creep (back) into arm. It was the same idea in the other direction for 0f0b00033a71ff728d6fab6f9d: I've no evidence that those tests ever failed on aarch64, but it seemed like a good idea to add aarch64 equivalents of the failing arm tests. Thanks, Richard
