Well, the contents of opal/asm/asm-data.txt and the arch-specific subdirs
below opal/include/opal/sys have served me as a list of the atomics
implementations.  If those include architectures no longer officially
supported, then some cleanup may be in order (as SPARC_v8 was recently
removed from asm-data.txt).
