Yes, that was my thought.
In that case I think we should be able to catch wrong memorder at compilation stage.

Ok, but it could be then something like that for arm specific code:
if (sizeof(val) == sizeof(uint16_t)) \
	__LOAD_EXC_16(...); \
else if (sizeof(val) == sizeof(uint32_t)) \	
	__LOAD_EXC_32(...); \
else if (sizeof(val) == sizeof(uint64_t)) \
	__LOAD_EXC_64(...); \
...

> And for consistency, we also use 3 APIs in generic path.
Honestly, even one multi-line macro doesn't look nice.
Having 3 identical ones looks even worse.
