At the moment, xchg on sh only supports 4 and 1 byte values, so using it from smp_store_mb means attempts to store a 2 byte value using this macro fail.
And happens to be exactly what virtio drivers want to do. Check size and fall back to a slower, but safe, WRITE_ONCE+smp_mb. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
