#include <asm/bitops.h>
/* sync_bitops functions are equivalent to the SMP implementation of the
* original functions, independently from CONFIG_SMP being defined.
*
* We need them because _set_bit etc are not SMP safe if !CONFIG_SMP. But
* under Xen you might be communicating with a completely external entity
* who might be on another CPU (e.g. two uniprocessor guests communicating
* via event channels and grant tables). So we need a variant of the bit
* ops which are SMP safe even on a UP kernel.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `asm/bitops.h`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arm.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
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.
