Should __rte_bit_atomic_test32()'s addr parameter be marked volatile, 
and two volatile-marked branches added to the above list? Both the 
C11-style GCC built-ins and the C11-proper atomic functions have 
addresses marked volatile. The Linux kernel and the old __sync GCC 
built-ins on the other hand, doesn't (although I think you still get 
volatile semantics). The only point of "volatile", as far as I can see, 
is to avoid warnings in case the user passed a volatile-marked pointer. 
The drawback is that *you're asking for volatile semantics*, although 
with the current compilers, it seems like that is what you get, 
regardless if you asked for it or not.

Just to be clear: even these functions would accept volatile-marked 
pointers, non-volatile pointers should be accepted as well (and should 
generally be preferred).

Isn't parallel programming in C lovely.
