[Impact]
Performance is lowered for ARM >= v8.1 cpus by not taking advantage of the "Large System Extenstion" atomic instructions they provide.
Note: This config was enabled during xenial development, but was disabled to workaround a FTBFS[*] due to us not having a new enough binutils to support it. binutils was later updated in xenial, and supports these instructions.
[Test Case]
TBD
[Regression Risk]
There is a known small performance overhead for <= ARMv8.1 arm64 systems (noted in the Kconfig).

grep CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS=y /boot/config-$(uname -r)
[Regression Risk]
There is a known small performance overhead for < ARMv8.1 arm64 systems (noted in the Kconfig). To mitigate the risk of runtime or build failures, this should be tested on both ARMv8 and >= ARMv8.1 systems.
