<id>urn:sha1:f06628638cf6e75f179742b6c1b35076965b9fdd</id>
<content type='text'>
With the inclusion of atomic FETCH-OP variants, many places in the
kernel can make use of atomic_fetch_$op() to avoid the callers that
need to compute the value/state _before_ the operation.

Peter Zijlstra laid out the machinery but we are still missing the
simpler dec,inc() calls (which future patches will make use of).

This patch only deals with the generic code, as at least right now
no arch actually implement them -- which is similar to what the
OP-RETURN primitives currently do.

it.

<content type='text'>
We should only expand the atomic64 relaxed bits once we've included
all relevant headers. So move it down until after we potentially
include asm-generic/atomic64.h.

In practise this will not have made a difference so far, since the
generic bits will not define _relaxed versions.

All the atomic operations have their arguments the wrong way around;
make atomic_fetch_or() consistent and flip them.

<title>locking/atomic, sched: Unexport fetch_or()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5529578a27288d11d4d15635c258c6dde0f0fb10</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch functionally reverts:

  5fd7a09cfb8c ("atomic: Export fetch_or()")

During the merge Linus observed that the generic version of fetch_or()
was messy:

  " This makes the ugly "fetch_or()" macro that the scheduler used
    internally a new generic helper, and does a bad job at it. "

  e23604edac2a Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used
by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type
can vary across architectures.

Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage
future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version
instead.

While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a
previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression
re-evaluations in the loop.

<content type='text'>
This is deemed to replace the type generic fetch_or() which brings a lot
of issues such as macro induced block variable aliasing and sloppy types.
Not to mention fetch_or() doesn't refer to any namespace, adding even
more confusion.

So lets provide an atomic_t version. Current and next users of fetch_or()
are thus encouraged to use atomic_t.

Some architectures may have their special barriers for acquire, release
and fence semantics, so that general memory barriers(smp_mb__*_atomic())
in the default __atomic_op_*() may be too strong, so allow architectures
to define their own helpers which can overwrite the default helpers.
