A bit, but not much.  rtapi_bitops.h and rtapi_math_i386.h have inline
asm, but I think the first just delegates to <asm/bitops.h> in
kernelspace[1] and the second is only for i386 (shouldn't apply to
x86_64)[2].  sim_common.h uses it for rdtsc, but that's not used on a
system with actual realtime.

[1] #if (defined(__MODULE__) && !defined(SIM))
    #include <asm/bitops.h>
[2] #ifdef __i386__
    #include "rtapi_math_i386.h"
