It was intentional. I could have written this as

#if !defined(readq_relaxed) && defined(readq)

but the effect would be almost the same, and the version I picked looks
simpler. Note that 32-bit architectures could provide readq, it's just
the generic code that doesn't, because most you typically don't get
atomic 64-bit accesses from dereferencing a 64-bit pointer as the
generic readq() function does.
