I'm a bit nervous about using the built-in atomics, when it's not
clear what the compiler will do on various architectures.

Gcc documentation talks about __atomic_is_lock_free(), which makes me
think that on various architectures it might end up doing some "fall
back to helper functions" cases (possibly for odd architectures).

IOW: I don't think the patch is wrong, but I do think we need to
verify that all compilers we support generate the obvious code for
this, and we don't have some "fall back to function calls".
