DO NOT support LOCK

This instruction is ONLY available in 64-bit mode. It is NOT supported in compatibility mode or 32-bit protected mode.

To avoid unexpected memory typing behavior, the source address MUST be aligned to the architectural requirements of the memory type being accessed. Failure to provide a valid memory operand will result in an invalid operation.
