Declare aarch64 has single copy atomicity for 8 byte values.
Architecture Reference Manual for ARMv8 B2.2.1 [1] For explicit memory effects generated from an Exception level the following rules apply: - A read that is generated by a load instruction that loads a single general-purpose register and is aligned to the size of the read in the instruction is single-copy atomic. - A write that is generated by a store instruction that stores a single general-purpose register and is aligned to the size of the write in the instruction is single-copy atomic.
