Already on the original patch I did suggest that perhaps Arm would want
to follow suit. So again - perhaps the rules should be unified by moving
to common code?

Sorry I missed the original patch. The recent changes looks beneficials to Arm as well.

On Arm, only asm-offsets.c is a pre-requisite. May I ask why you need the second on x86?
