+ * For the benefit of those who are trying to port Linux to another
+ * architecture, here are some C-language equivalents. You should
+ * recode these in the native assembly language, if at all possible.
+ * To guarantee atomicity, these routines call cli() and sti() to
+ * disable interrupts while they operate. (You have to provide inline
+ * routines to cli() and sti().)
+ *
+ * Also note, these routines assume that you have 32 bit integers.
+ * You will have to change this if you are trying to port Linux to the
+ * Alpha architecture or to a Cray. :-)
