The main idea is to prevent the hotcount collisions between any other
functions that may possibly get hot. Unaligned load isn't a problem then
since we have no check for JIT semantics (no calls to `jit.util.traceinfo()`).
The same approach is vital for all checks that assume the specific trace
recording (or abortion). Hence, this comment is added in the first
place to attract the attention of the reader to these "standard lines",
which are not standard at all (since it is not done in the main chunk only
once).

Than the question is: should I make the comment more verbose and
specific?
