26 * These are supposed to be implemented as a single instruction which
27 * operates on the per-cpu data base segment. x86-64 doesn't have
28 * that yet, so this is a fairly inefficient workaround for the
29 * meantime. The single instruction is atomic with respect to
30 * preemption and interrupts, so we need to explicitly disable
31 * interrupts here to achieve the same effect. However, because it
32 * can be used from within interrupt-disable/enable, we can't actually
33 * disable interrupts; disabling preemption is enough.
