+// As for cas, memory barriers are complicated on ARM, but the kernel
+// provides a user helper. ARMv5 does not support SMP and has no
+// memory barrier instruction at all. ARMv6 added SMP support and has
+// a memory barrier, but it requires writing to a coprocessor
+// register. ARMv7 introduced the DMB instruction, but it's expensive
+// even on single-core devices. The kernel helper takes care of all of
+// this for us. \ No newline at end of file
