156cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions

158cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
159cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
160cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
161cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
162cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
163cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
164cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
