aarch64 doesn't have native store immediate instruction, such operation
has to be implemented by the below instruction sequence:

Load immediate to register
Store register

Thsi patch might be buried by the storm of xadd discussion, however, it is
absolutely irrelevent to xadd, so resend the patch itself.
