> Now that we have support for LSE atomics in C++ HotSpot source, we can generate much better code for them. In particular, the sequence we generate for CMPXCHG with a full two-way barrier using two DMBs is way suboptimal.
>
> This patch:
>
> Moves memory barriers from the atomic_linux_aarch64 file into the stubs.
> Rewrites the LSE versions of the stubs to be more efficient.
> Fixes a race condition in stub generation.
> Mostly leaves the pre-LSE stubs alone, except that I added a PRFM which according to kernel engineers improves performance.
