Applied.
Thanks a lot.
Please address John's request in a followup and these few issues:
- rst doesn't look correct. Example:
rst2man Documentation/networking/filter.rst >/dev/null
Documentation/networking/filter.rst:1053: (WARNING/2) Inline emphasis
start-string without end-string.

It reads confusing to me.
I would rephrase 'clang enables this mode by default' into
'clang can generate new atomic instruction when -mcpu=v3 is enabled'.
'For older versions...'
This part I didn't get. The users need clang 12 that is capable to
emit these insns.
What 'older versions' you're talking about?
