It was odd before but instructions can touch or swap with PCI so that's why. PCI
is not like USB or other protocols it requires overhead on the CPU side if that
makes sense including lanes/instructions to a lesser degree. It may not be
mentioned for assembly manuals directly but in other hardware documentation
very likely.
