/*
* On the StrongARM, "swp" is terminally broken since it bypasses the
* cache totally. This means that the cache becomes inconsistent, and,
* since we use normal loads/stores as well, this is really bad.
* Typically, this causes oopsen in filp_close, but could have other,
* more disastrous effects. There are two work-arounds:
* 1. Disable interrupts and emulate the atomic swap
* 2. Clean the cache, perform atomic swap, flush the cache
*
* We choose (1) since its the "easiest" to achieve here and is not
* dependent on the processor type.
*
* NOTE that this solution won't work on an SMP system, so explcitly
* forbid it here.

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
