just some notes here.

so first let me start with it's okay to do this cast but only because we
have knowledge of the internal implementation detail and this series has
to do this in a few places.

basically internally the actual atomic operation is fed back into an
intrinsic/builtin that is either re-qualified as __rte_atomic or doesn't
require qualification. i agree it isn't optimal since we have to take
care should we ever alter the implementation to avoid compatibility
problems but unlikely for it to be changed.

we could provide new api but i'm not sure we can do that this late in
the release cycle. notably i think it would be nicer if it *could* be
made to be 'generic' as used literally in the atomics documentation
which means it may operate on non-integer and non-pointer types.
