It is better, if we avoid #ifdef's in the common code. I think, you can
do the scheme like examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_em_hlm_neon.h. Where,
the common code will have all generic routine, difference will be
moved to a separate files to reduce #ifdef clutter.

For me it looks same. [1] can not cross [2] is same as [2] cannot cross
[1], if [1] are [2] at back to back. No ?

If I understand it correctly. in freebsd, they are planning to revisit
the usage of first __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE in Freebsd-12
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/sys/sys/buf_ring.h#L170

It would be nice to see how much overhead it gives.ie back to back
__ATOMIC_ACQUIRE.
