Sorry if we already discussed this, but did we decide how we were going to
merge this? There's the one patch to generic code and then three powerpc
patches.

It'd make most sense for it to go via powerpc I think. Given that the change to
generic code is relatively trivial I'll plan to merge this unless someone
objects.

Also it is pretty late in the -next cycle for something like this. But AFAICS
there are no users of these "atomic*relaxed" variants yet other than arm64 code
and qspinlocks, neither of which are used on powerpc. So adding them should be
pretty harmless.

cheers
