[PATCH] arm64: Add the arm64.nolse_atomics command line option

From: Maria Yu
Date: Mon Jul 10 2023 - 02:00:59 EST


In order to be able to disable lse_atomic even if cpu
support it, most likely because of memory controller
cannot deal with the lse atomic instructions, use a
new idreg override to deal with it.
