No, x86_uarch is separate. I'm using it because I don't want to waste space
unnecessarily and this was a reserved field.
But it probably will have to be a separate member for you, if you decide to
need it because, if it is part of the union, it will botch x86_vfm
comparisons.
Oh well, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
