There was an earlier report about this here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/78e0d19c-b77a-4169-a80f-2eef91f4a1d6@gmail.com/

Boris there suggested: "perhaps we should make
CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETHUNK depend on !X86_32":
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240403173059.GJZg2SUwS8MXw7CdwF@fat_crate.local/

But that did not happen afaics. Would it be wise to go down that path?

Ciao, Thorsten
