Thank you, Kees, I will apply on my next rebase.

Given Mark's ongoing atomics rework, a later version of this patch is
likely to remove ".. kernel-doc:: arch/x86/include/asm/atomic.h" from
that same file.  (One of the benefits of Mark's rework is that all the
kernel-doc headers can be in the same file.)

Unless you tell me otherwise, I will retain your Reviewed-by across that
change.

							Thanx, Paul
