-Bundle-locked sequences do not nest. It's an error if two

-@code{.bundle_unlock} directive.
+For convenience when using @code{.bundle_lock} and @code{.bundle_unlock}
+inside assembler macros (@pxref{Macro}), bundle-locked sequences may be
+nested. That is, a second @code{.bundle_lock} directive before the next
+@code{.bundle_unlock} directive has no effect except that it must be
+matched by another closing @code{.bundle_unlock} so that there is the
+same number of @code{.bundle_lock} and @code{.bundle_unlock} directives.
