This patch adds the alternative solution to emulate the SWP and SWPB
instructions using LDREX/STREX sequences, and log statistics to
/proc/cpu/swp_emulation. To correctly deal with copy-on-write, it
also

Sounds like debugfs would be a better place to export this through?
That's what PPC does.
It made sense to me to place it with /proc/cpu/alignment.
Moving both of these into debugfs might well make sense in the future,
but I think that should be a separate patch.
Yep, works for me.
