that is something else, I also have a partially applied C implementation that
appears to be faster than the brute force armv6 code.

One benefit of using armv6 is that the atomic code will use a different
implementation (ldrex,strex IIRC instead of swp). In any case please use
something like qttracereply to see if passing armv6 is giving any benefit at all.
