Hi @nikic,
I have rewritten this PR to use the `!mem.cache_hint` metadata as suggested & updated the commit message to try and provide more context. Could you please take a look to make sure that I have made the changes that you requested on an earlier commit, as merging is currently blocked? Thanks!
