It may be more complicated than that, though.  armv6 can do 64-bit
atomics even tho it's 32-bit.  armv4, also 32-bit, can do 64-bit
atomics in the kernel but not in userland.

Maybe machine/atomic.h needs a #define that says whether 64-bit ops are
available in the current compilation unit.  (And likewise for other bit
sizes if we have arches that have other limitations.)
