Apologies, the commit message could make it clearer, but this is also an
issue for rte_wait_until_equal_32 and rte_wait_until_equal_64.

rte_wait_until_equal_32 is used in a dozen or so lock tests with the old
__ATOMIC_ defines, as well as rte_ring_generic_pvt.h and
rte_ring_c11_pvt.h, where it's used with the new rte_memorder_order
values. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the static assertions in
rte_stdatomic.h ensure that mixed usage doesn't cause any issues, even
if using the older __ATOMIC_ defines isn't ideal?

Yes, that could've caught this sooner.
