So I think that the Linux code was perfectly correct in considering
the TX39 to be without SYNC, just as a Vr4101 must be
consdered to be without LL/SC.  They decode the instructions,
but they don't actually implement them as specified.

 The code is not correct if "bc0f" is needed to be sure a write-back
happened.  If that is the case, the processors need their own wbflush() 
implementation like R2k/R3k configurations in older DECstations.
