My one question (and the reason why I went with cmpxchg() in the first
place) would be about the overflow behaviour for atomic_fetch_inc() and
friends. I believe those functions should be OK on x86, so that when we
overflow the counter, it behaves like an unsigned value and wraps back
around. Is that the case for all architectures?
i.e. are atomic_t/atomic64_t always guaranteed to behave like u32/u64
on increment?
I could not find any documentation that explicitly stated that they
should.
