Note that none of those actually have NMIs and llist is mostly OK on
those architectures too.

The problem is when you combine cmpxchg() with regular stores and
llist() doesn't do that.

The only architectures that have NMIs are: ARM, ARM64, POWERPC, s390,
SH, SPARC64, X86 and XTENSA and all of them have sane atomic ops.

(XTENSA is tricky, because it looks like it has parts that don't have
sane atomics, but I _think_ those parts also don't have NMI)
