Well IIUC this specific case is fine: the ordering that you get with
BPF_[CMP]XCHG (via kernel atomic_[cmpxchg]) is sequential consistency,
and its' fine to provide a stronger ordering than the one requested. I
should change it to say __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST to avoid confusing readers,
though.

(I wrote it this way because I didn't see a __sync* function for
unconditional atomic exchange, and I didn't see an __atomic* function
where you don't need to specify the ordering).

However... this led me to double-check the semantics and realise that we
do have a problem with ordering: The kernel's atomic_{add,and,or,xor} do
not imply memory barriers and therefore neither do the corresponding BPF
instructions. That means Clang can compile this:

(void)__atomic_fetch_add(&val, 1, __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST)

to a {.code = (BPF_STX | BPF_DW | BPF_ATOMIC), .imm = BPF_ADD},
which is implemented with atomic_add, which doesn't actually satisfy
__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST.

In fact... I think this is a pre-existing issue with BPF_XADD.

If all I've written here is correct, the fix is to use
(void)atomic_fetch_add etc (these imply barriers) even when BPF_FETCH is
not set. And that change ought to be backported to fix BPF_XADD.
