+ * kernel uses a lwarx instruction without the corresponding
+ * stwcx which effectively causes any reservation of a
+ * process to be removed. if a context switch occurs
+ * between the two accesses the store will not occur
+ * and the condition code will cause it to loop. If on
+ * a dual processor machine, the reserve will cause
+ * appropriate bus cycle accesses to notify other
