Commit 15e8699f00 ("atomics: convert to reStructuredText") converted
docs/devel/atomics.txt to docs/devel/atomics.rst.
We still have several references to the old file, so let's fix them
with the following command:
sed -i s/atomics.txt/atomics.rst/ $(git grep -l docs/devel/atomics.txt)

clang's C11 atomic_fetch_*() functions only take a C11 atomic type
pointer argument. QEMU uses direct types (int, etc) and this causes a
compiler error when a QEMU code calls these functions in a source file
that also included <stdatomic.h> via a system header file:
$ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure ... && make
../util/async.c:79:17: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('unsigned int *' invalid)
Avoid using atomic_*() names in QEMU's atomic.h since that namespace is
used by <stdatomic.h>. Prefix QEMU's APIs with 'q' so that atomic.h
and <stdatomic.h> can co-exist. I checked /usr/include on my machine and
searched GitHub for existing "qatomic_" users but there seem to be none.
This patch was generated using:
$ git grep -h -o '\<atomic\(64\)\?_[a-z0-9_]\+' include/qemu/atomic.h | \
sort -u >/tmp/changed_identifiers
$ for identifier in $(</tmp/changed_identifiers); do
sed -i "s%\<$identifier\>%q$identifier%g" \
$(git grep -I -l "\<$identifier\>")
done
I manually fixed line-wrap issues and misaligned rST tables.

GCC7+ will no longer advertise support for 16-byte __atomic operations
if only cmpxchg is supported, as for x86_64. Fortunately, x86_64 still
has support for __sync_compare_and_swap_16 and we can make use of that.
AArch64 does not have, nor ever has had such support, so open-code it.
