The main purpose for using __sync built-in functions is to support compat mode for 32-bit perf with 64-bit kernel. But using these built-in functions might cause potential issues. __sync functions originally support Intel Itanium processoer [1] but it cannot promise to support all 32-bit archs. Now these functions have become the legacy functions. Considering __sync functions cannot really fix the 64-bit value atomicity on 32-bit archs, thus this patch drops __sync functions.
