Thanks for the patch. However, I don't quite understand its purpose.

There is already a case for 8-byte cmpxchg in the switch statement below:

        case 1:                                         \
                __xchg__res = xchg_u8(__xchg_ptr, x);   \
                break;

Does cmpxchg_emu_u8() have any advantages over the native xchg_u8()?

Thanks,
Adrian
