x86 is the only architecture that has different struct alignment between 32-bit
and 64-bit processes, so others don't have this particular problem. On top of
that, x86 also has two different 32-bit ABIs and only one of them needs the
workaround, while the other (x32) uses the same struct layout as x86-64 and
must use the normal code path.
