--- Comment #6 from Richard Earnshaw <rearnsha at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
arm linux code should always be using the _S_atomic sequences. When the
processor doesn't have the required instructions, kernel helper routines will
be used. This ensures that code is forwards compatible to later architectures.
It's a really bad idea for the headers used in user code to be changing this
decision dynamically.
