Hi,
Instead of trying to build this on x86_64, I powered up my 32-bit x86
laptop and verified that this patch fixes the build errors of
undefined references to cmpxchg8b_emu() and atomic64_*_386() functions.

There are still some build errors in 2 object files:

and

I don't know what to do about these or what is causing them (other than
"alternatives").
