    arm: Enable USE_ATOMIC_COMPILER_BUILTINS (BZ #24774)
    
    As per other architectures.  I have checked on a armv8 hardware with
    the following configurations:
    
      arm-linux-gnueabihf (gcc built with --with-float=hard --with-cpu=arm926ej-s)
      armv5-linux-gnueabihf (-march=armv5te -mfpu=vfpv3)
      armv7-linux-gnueabihf (-march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3)
      armv7-thumb-linux-gnueabihf (-march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3 -mthumb)
      armv7-neon-linux-gnueabihf (-march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon)
      armv7-neonhard-linux-gnueabihf (-march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard)
    
    Without any regression.
    
    I haven't dig into the code, but since Linux atomic-machine.h handle
    pre-ARMv6 and ARMv6 I expect the compiler might have some small room
    to optimize.
    
    The code size also improves is most of the configurations:

    The idea is eventually move all architectures to use compiler builtins.
