Increase the priority of the init_have_lse_atomics constructor so it runs
before other constructors. This improves chances that rr works when LSE
atomics are supported.

Regress and bootstrap pass, OK for commit?

Can you add a comment above the function explaining why we chose 90
in particular?  I see 100 was originally suggested in the PR.

Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard,

I've added a comment - as usual it's just a number. A quick grep in gcc and
glibc showed that priorities 98-101 are used, so I just went a bit below so it
has a higher priority than typical initializations.

Cheers,
Wilco

Here is v2:

Increase the priority of the init_have_lse_atomics constructor so it runs
before other constructors. This improves chances that rr works when LSE
atomics are supported.

Thanks.  OK for trunk, and for backports after a trial period.
