sh: Conditionalize gUSA support.

This conditionalizes gUSA support. gUSA is not supported on
SMP configurations, and it's not necessary there anyways due
to having other atomicity options (ie, movli.l/movco.l).

Anything implementing the LL/SC semantics (all SH-4A CPUs)
can switch to userspace atomicity implementations without
requiring gUSA. This is left default-enabled on all UP so
that glibc doesn't break.

Those that know what they are doing can disable this explicitly.

This enables support for gUSA (general UserSpace Atomicity).
This is the default implementation for both UP and non-ll/sc
CPUs, and is used by the libc, amongst others.
For additional information, design information can be found
in <http://lc.linux.or.jp/lc2002/papers/niibe0919p.pdf>.
This should only be disabled for special cases where alternate
atomicity implementations exist.
