Overall series looks good to me. The only nit I would have is that the above could (in theory)
be subject to atomic_long_t vs long type confusion. I would rather prefer to have a small handler
which properly reads out the atomic_long_t and then passes it onwards as a temporary/plain long
to user space.

Thanks,
Daniel
