I suppose they'll leverage 'function multi-version'[1], as Clear Linux already does[2] to enable extra instructions on the big cores.

That seems hard to do with preemptive scheduling. AFAIK, the decision is on function level, and done at startup. Even if you can decide on call-time, it's only function level, and the preemption can happen mid-function.

That only works if your code is never migrated between cores.
