The atomic_t type is just a wrapper for a signed int, so I didn't want
to have to convert from signed to unsigned. I agree it'd sound better to
have unsigned here, though.

Is it really the middle? I recall adding the "mode" at the top (still
below the "_UNSPEC"), which I thought was correct at that time (and had
no objection). That's why I did the same here. Should I move it to the
end, then?
