Currently all architectures must implement atomic_fetch_add_unless(), with common code providing atomic_add_unless(). Architectures must also implement atomic64_add_unless() directly, with no corresponding atomic64_fetch_add_unless(). This divergence is unfortunate, and means that the APIs for atomic_t, atomic64_t, and atomic_long_t differ. In preparation for unifying things, with architectures providing atomic64_fetch_add_unless, this patch adds a generic atomic64_add_unless() which will use atomic64_fetch_add_unless(). The instrumented atomics are updated to take this case into account. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
