        After changing the parameter from `NotSerialized` to `Serialized`, the
        remark is indeed gone and there is no size change.
    
        The remark was added in ACPICA version 20130517 [1] and gives the
        following explanation.
    
                If a thread blocks within the method for any reason, and another thread
                enters the method, the method will fail because an attempt will be
                made to create the same (named) object twice.
    
                In this case, issue a remark that the method should be marked
                serialized. ACPICA BZ 909.
