        breakpoints at every jump address that lies beyond the end of the sequence (after the sc instruction).
        This ensures that if any such branch is taken, execution will pause at its target address.

        This test includes an lr/sc sequence containing an active forward branch with a jump address located
        after the end of the atomic section. LLDB should correctly stop at this branch's target address. The
