It's been superseded by the atomic helpers.
The use of the atomic helpers provides a significant performance and scalability
improvement. Below is the result of running the atomic_add-test microbenchmark with:
$ x86_64-linux-user/qemu-x86_64 tests/atomic_add-bench -o 5000000 -r $r -n $n
, where $n is the number of threads and $r is the allowed range for the additions.
The scenarios measured are:
- atomic: implements x86' ADDL with the atomic_add helper (i.e. this patchset)
- cmpxchg: implement x86' ADDL with a TCG loop using the cmpxchg helper
- master: before this patchset
Results sorted in ascending range, i.e. descending degree of contention.
Y axis is Throughput in Mops/s. Tests are run on an AMD machine with 64
Opteron 6376 cores.

For master I stopped measuring master after 8 threads, because there is little
point in measuring the well-known performance collapse of a contended lock.
