The logic for expanding atomics that aren't natively supported in
terms of cmpxchg loops is much simpler to express at the IR level. It
also allows the normal optimisations and CodeGen improvements to help
out with atomics, instead of using a limited set of possible
instructions..

- Clear 'mayStore' flag when loading from the atomic variable before the
spin loop
- Clear kill flag from one use to multiple use in registers forming the
address to that atomic variable
- don't use a physical register as live-in register in BB (neither entry
nor landing pad.) by copying it into virtual register
