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