Subject: [PARISC] fix return type of __atomic64_add_return

From: John David Anglin <d...@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>

commit 548c210fbffdb008a80fa41ff0cb3965f185583d upstream.

The return type of __atomic64_add_return of should be s64 or long, not
int.  This fixes the atomic64 test failure that I previously reported.
