clang gcc-compat warnings can wrongly fire when certain constructions are used,

Will cause clang to emit the following warning "'break' is bound to loop, GCC
binds it to switch", which is a false positive, and both gcc and clang bound
the break to the inner switch. In order to workaround this issue, disable the
gcc-compat checks for the usage of the read_atomic macro.
This has been reported upstream as
http://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32595.

Julien,
Roger forgot to Cc you on this - thoughts wrt 4.9 (without it Xen
won't build with clang aiui)?
On the basis that it will break Xen build with clang:
