Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The pre ARMv5 implementation can be aborted if an exception occurs in
the middle of it.  Because of that, the ARMv6 implementation doesn't
re-attempt the operation on a failed strex either.  Let's make this
transient nature of such a false positive more explicit in the
definition.
