Any reasonable system configuration will define cpu_has_llsc to 1 in
order to override the default.  R10000_LLSC_WAR is a constant as well.
So only one of the three if blocks will remain.  If that's not the case
you either don't have a cpu-feature-overrides.h file for your platform
or it doesn't define cpu_has_llsc to a constant expression.
