#pragma mc_func is the available mechanism (VAC/C++). Read the compiler
documentation and look at sys/atomic_op.h for an example.

FWIW, the compiler can inline, and with optimization can likely
do a better job with the code than you can. Of course, this
depends upon what you're trying to accomplish with your
assembly code....
