Patch to assembler to strip LOCK prefix.
Kinsella
PATCH v4 2/2 Patch to assembler to strip LOCK prefix.
The lock prefix is usually stripped by passing to the compiler -Wa,momit-lock-prefix=yes via EXTRA_CFLAGS. However I couldn't find a way to get buildroot to pass CFLAGS/EXTRA_CFLAGS around.
I tried using BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION, and creating a new processor type but the flag kept stripping it out. I found the most reliable way to achieve the behavior was to make stripping the LOCK prefix the assembler's default behavior, hence the patch
