Yes.

Unless you are using a new cpu, you should already have test-and-set for
that platform. The solution has been to define separate template/*
files for each os/cpu combination to be sure the proper combination gets
used. However, the actual locking test is done in
include/storage/s_lock.h, and it checks for various cpu types. Not sure
how your locking define is getting set.
