Ugh, that's disgusting really...

Firstly, the patch is way too large, please split off new the documentation parts 
of the patch to reduce the size and to make it easier to read!

Secondly, the next patch should do the rename to arch_atomic_*() pattern - and 
nothing else:

> - * atomic_set - set atomic variable
> + * arch_atomic_set - set atomic variable
>   * @v: pointer of type atomic_t

> +static __always_inline void arch_atomic_set(atomic_t *v, int i)


Third, the prototype CPP complications:

Are just utterly disgusting that turn perfectly readable code into an unreadable, 
unmaintainable mess.

You need to find some better, cleaner solution please, or convince me that no such 
solution is possible. NAK for the time being.

Thanks,
