O_o

Can you paste the disassembly of in6_dev_getx? I can't understand how
we're landing in the exception handler.

Does this need an explicit "memory" added to the clobbers line here?
This isn't present in the atomic_inc() implementation, but maybe
something confuses gcc in this case into ignoring the "+m" marking?

Just for fun, can you print out *(int *)regs->cx before the assignment too?
