That's probably what the commit message is for. It sounds like I should 
include quite a bit of detail when I do it.

The AArch64 fixups will likely be going in with the backend itself. They're 
laced throughout code-generation and emission. Splitting up the backend 
probably won't be practical, but we *should* be able to cut it back to *just* 
the backend and not other changes. This is part of that effort.

Quite possibly. That's what I was referring to with future changes.
