Hint instruction is for the instruction set space that is reserved for architectural hint instructions.
Some encodings described here are not allocated in this revision of the architecture, and behave as NOPs. These encodings might be allocated to other hint functionality in future revisions of the architecture and therefore must not be used by software.
