[PATCH] 3.3 Release fix on ARM - atomics

[Renato Golin]

Hi Rafael,

As you mentioned in the bug, we should only apply this change when
hard-float is set, which it is by default on armv7a, I presume.

>From that part of the code, I can infer that by the time
"MaxAtomicPromoteWidth = 64;", the variable SoftFloat is not properly set,
so a simple "if (!SoftFloat)" won't cut in there. It seems SoftFloat is
being set on HandleTargetFeatures() which is a virtual method, probably
called indirectly. Do you have a better place to set MaxAtomicInlineWidth =
64?

cheers,
--renato
