All the following examples assume that `*p` and `*q` refer to
memory locations accessible to multiple goroutines.

Not introducing data races into race-free programs means not moving
writes out of conditional statements in which they appear.

It may be used only as the final non-empty statement in such a clause.

<p>
A "defer" statement invokes a function whose execution is deferred
to the moment the surrounding function returns, either because the

high bit is set is rejected.

<h3 id="symbols">Symbols</h3>

<p>
Some symbols, such as <code>R1</code> or <code>LR</code>,
are predefined and refer to registers.
The exact set depends on the architecture.
</p>

<p>
There are four predeclared symbols that refer to pseudo-registers.
These are not real registers, but rather virtual registers maintained by
the toolchain, such as a frame pointer.

It may be used only as the final non-empty statement in such a clause.
