So sprach Paul Mackerras:
I think the difference is that the atomic ops that return a value also
have include a barrier on ppc64, but don't on ppc32 (although they
probably should). IOW I think the merged case should follow ppc64
here.
Excellent!
I will submit that patch in the style of ppc64 early this week.
Thanks for the feedback,
