      <para>Clear Branch History clears the branch history for the current context
to the extent that branch history information created before
the <instruction>CLRBHB</instruction> instruction cannot be used by code before
the <instruction>CLRBHB</instruction> instruction to exploitatively control the execution
of any indirect branches in code in the current context that appear
in program order after the instruction.</para>
