It would be helpful to mention the affected target architecture
(and/or function name) in the commit message, because main.c covers
a lot of ground.

I think this is a correct bug fix, but it's not really related
to the main point of the patch (fixing end_exclusive()) and
there are actually a lot of instances of it in this file and
possibly others. Could you fix it (and those others) in a separate
patch, please?

This change is correct.
