The RM52xx families are MIPS IV ISA devices, and lld/scd are
MIPS III (and therefore MIPS IV) instructions. You've got 'em.
But you won't be able to use them in User mode unless the UX
bit of the CP0.Status register is set, which also turns on 64-bit
addressing, for which I rather doubt that your kernel is prepared.
User mode code should use only the 32-bit ll/sc's. Not that it
sounds like that has anything to do with the problem reported
here, mind you...
