Most of this patch is by Wei Tang of Linaro, and the explanation is in
the bug report. I have been over it fairly thoroughly because this is
a very delicate and critical part of the compiler, and I think that
Wei Tang's reasoning is correct.
I took the opportunity to cut out some dead wood because otherwise we
would have had four almost-identical versions of cmpxchg.
OK?
Andrew.
