+Implement Intel style cross-cacheline atomics with ARM TME
+We don't currently have a CPU architecture that supports TME but we should track this.

+Any atomic operation that crosses a cacheline will fault on ARM.

+We then need to do two CAS loops to implement this.

+Problem is that this can tear.

+

+Intel works around this problem by supporting "Split locks"

+AMD should also just tear in this situation.

+

+Once we have an architecture that supports TME, use it to hold ownership of both sides of the cacheline and do the ops to ensure no tearing.
