CI job x86_64-llvm-17 [1] failed because clang-17 crashed when compiling
this file (arena_atomics.c):
fatal error: error in backend: unable to write nop sequence of 1 bytes
After some digging, I believe I am hitting a known issue that Yonghong
described in [2]. Changing __u8 and __u16 variables to __u32 seems to
resolve/work around the issue:
+__u32 __arena_global load_acquire8_value = 0x12;
Will look into it more.
