Yes, agree, initially I was going to add min/max helpers to both compiler-rt 
and libgcc. But the point is that gcc is not generating LSE min/max at all. So 
these helpers would be untested and become rotten. There is no reason for gcc 
community to support unused code. Hopefully after <atomic> maximum/minimum 
proposal approval I can easily add the helpers to libcc and compiler-rt and 
enable [U]Min/[U]Max RWM atomics expansion in LLVM.
