    locking/atomic, arch/powerpc: Implement atomic{,64}_fetch_{add,sub,and,or,xor}{,_relaxed,_acquire,_release}()
    
    Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
    existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
    value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
    
    This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
    bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
    to modification).
