I object to these uses of (synch_)cmpxchg on a uint16_t in common code.
Many architectures, including PowerPC, do not support 2-byte atomic
operations, but this code is common to all Xen architectures.
We'll use synch_cmpxchg_subword() in the next iteration of these
patches. It's already been applied to our main Xen repository but
hadn't been applied to our merge repo when these patches were created.
