No. clrsetbits operates on I/O registers, not RAM.
Does lwarx require the EA to be cached memory or something?
That's implementation dependent, and support for accesses to uncached
memory is being phased out of book E according to the E500 manual.
The reservation is held within the processor, so it should work on I/O.
Even if the core supports lwarx/stwcx to uncached memory, the I/O bus
must support atomic read-modify-write transactions for this to work.
Why do you think you need lwarx/stwcx to I/O?
