ARMv7: Enable the SWP instruction
The SWP instruction has been deprecated starting with the ARMv6
architecture. On ARMv7 processors with the multiprocessor extensions
(like Cortex-A9), this instruction is disabled by default but it can be
enabled by setting bit 10 in the System Control register. Note that
setting this bit is safe even if the ARMv7 processor has the SWP
instruction enabled by default.
