This breaks building on 32 bit architectures as I found on my daily ARM
builds: __raw_writeq cannot be defined on architectures that don't have
native 64 bit data access instructions.
I will rework the patch to avoid this problem.
It's also wrong to use the
__raw_* variant, which is not guaranteed to be atomic and is not
endian-safe.
We do runtime probing and only use this function on platforms where it
is appropriate, so atomicity is not an issue. As for endianess, I used
the __raw_ variant precisely because it is correct for both big and
little endian kernels.
