Right, this is not a discussion for upstream anymore.  If Will and
Catalin believe that this errata will not actually hit and that the
worst case is a performance problem then not applying it makes sense.

We can continue the discussion in
<https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/#/c/169732/>, but given what
I see here I'd even vote that we don't need to apply this locally.


Thanks to all for the review!
