FWIW, I tested on ppc with ATOMIC64_SELFTEST=y for the following branch:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git locking/atomic (afee54ef5b1f2b04)

without this modification, I can hit:

------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at lib/atomic64_test.c:181!
Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]

with this modification, all the atomic selftests are passed ;-)
