Note: This config was enabled during xenial development, but was disabled to workaround a FTBFS[*] due to us not having a new enough binutils to support it. binutils was later updated in xenial, and supports these instructions. [Test Case] grep CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS=y /boot/config-$(uname -r) [Regression Risk] There is a known small performance overhead for < ARMv8.1 arm64 systems (noted in the Kconfig). To mitigate the risk of runtime or build failures, this should be tested on both ARMv8 and >= ARMv8.1 systems, to exercise both code paths.
