If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: John David Anglin commit 45db07382a5c78b0c43b3b0002b63757fb60e873 upstream. The __ldcw macro has a problem when its argument needs to be reloaded from memory. The output memory operand and the input register operand both need to be reloaded using a register in class R1_REGS when generating 64-bit code. This fails because there's only a single register in the class. Instead, use a memory clobber. This also makes the __ldcw macro a compiler memory barrier.
