I see that s64 is not the same as long on x86_64 (long long vs long),
so it's still not possible to e.g. portably print a result of
atomic_read(). But it's a separate issue that we don't need to solve
now.

Also all wrappers like:

void atomic64_set(atomic64_t *v, s64 i)
{
arch_atomic64_set(v, i);
}

lead to type conversions, but at least my compiler does not bark on it.

The only remaining problem is with atomic64_try_cmpxchg, which is
simply not possible to use now (not possible to declare the *old
type).
I will need something along the following lines to fix it (then
callers can use s64* for old).
Sounds good?
