The syntax for "cmpxchg" should now look something like:
cmpxchg i32* %addr, i32 42, i32 3 acquire monotonic
where the second ordering argument gives the required semantics in the case
that no exchange takes place. It should be no stronger than the first ordering
constraint and cannot be either "release" or "acq_rel" (since no store will
have taken place).

The SWAP instruction only exists in a 32-bit variant, but the 64-bit
atomic swap can be implemented in terms of CASX, like the other atomic
rmw primitives.
