Sorry for the delay. It seems reasonable to me due to 1 being at a fixed address
where 2 was arbitrary address. But Peterz might have felt the opposite earlier.
Not sure.

I'd also love to get some second opinions from broonie (arm shadow stack) and
Deepak (riscv shadow stack).

Deepak, even if riscv has a special instruction that pushes to the shadow stack,
will it be ok if there is a callable operation that does the same thing? Like,
aren't you relying on endbranches or the compiler or something such that
arbitrary data can't be pushed via that instruction?

BTW Jiri, thanks for considering shadow stack in your work.
