[ARM] 4264/1: ldrex/strex syntax errors with recent compilers
Trying to build some code using atomic_clear_mask() on a ARM v6 processor with a recent compiler (tried with gcc version 4.1.1 (CodeSourcery ARM Sourcery G++ 2006q3-26), but all gcc > 4.1 might be affected) results in the following: /tmp/ccWKLJV8.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccWKLJV8.s:581: Error: instruction does not accept this addressing mode -- `ldrex r0,r3' /tmp/ccWKLJV8.s:583: Error: instruction does not accept this addressing mode -- `strex r1,r0,r3' Older gcc (like gcc version 4.0.0 (DENX ELDK 4.1 4.0.0)) have no problem with this. The patch below fixes the compile error. I also verified that gcc-4.0.0 generates identical code using both forms.
