// On arm, the "normal" (x86-like) comparison primops are used, so
// the expensive EQ/NE scheme could apply. However, it doesn't,
// because the constant 0x80808080 is placed in a constant pool
// and so never appears as a literal, and so the instrumenter
// never spots it and so doesn't use the expensive scheme (for foo).
// Hence also on ARM we get 3 errors, not 2.
//
// s390x is even more complicated: Depending on the architecture
// level we have the 0x80808080 either in the literal pool (3 errors)
// or with the extended immediate facility in an instruction (2 errors).
