With NULL as an argument, we return 1 as soon as we know there's a
single hook, so this is fairly optimized. I've tried to make it as cheap
as possible to check.

Nope, it calls run_hook_ve, which is updated.

I can make that change.

Yeah, that makes sense. I'll do that.

Sure. That's a nice improvement.

Exactly. I didn't make a lot of changes.
