Is it OK to add it to rte_atomic_64.h header which is for 64-bit integer ops?

Andrew.

I believe this file is for atomic operations specific to x86_64 builds, but not 
necessarily limited to 64-bit operations (note that rte_atomic_32.h contains 
64-bit operations specific to 32-bit builds). At least, that’s how I 
interpreted it.
