Thanks, looking good. Note that this is a hardware restriction on LL/SC rsp. LLD/SCD which only operate on natually aligned four rsp. eight byte operands. Could fixed but would slow down and inflate every invocation of cmpxchg() which is currently an inline function and I feel a bit uneasy about hardware behaviour when mixing LL/SC rsp. LLD/SCD with conventional loads and stores.
