We'd like all architectures to convert to ARCH_ATOMIC, as this will enable functionality, and once all architectures are converted it will be possible to make significant cleanups to the atomic headers. A number of architectures use asm-generic/cmpxchg.h or asm-generic/cmpxhg-local.h, and it's impractical to convert the headers and all these architectures in one go. To make it possible to convert them one-by-one, let's make the asm-generic implementation function as either cmpxchg*() or arch_cmpxchg*() depending on whether ARCH_ATOMIC is selected. To do this, the generic implementations are prefixed as generic_cmpxchg_*(), and preprocessor definitions map cmpxchg_*()/arch_cmpxchg_*() onto these as appropriate. Once all users are moved over to ARCH_ATOMIC the ifdeffery in the header can be simplified and/or removed entirely. For existing users (none of which select ARCH_ATOMIC), there should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
