Merge r221614,221696,221737,221840 from largeSMP project branch:
Rewrite atomic operations for powerpc in order to achieve the following:
- Produce a type-clean implementation (in terms of functions arguments
  and returned values) for the primitives.
- Fix errors with _long() atomics where they ended up with the wrong
  arguments to be accepted.
- Follow the sys/type.h specifics that define the numbered types starting
  from standard C types.
- Let _ptr() version to not auto-magically cast arguments, but leave
  the burden on callers, as _ptr() atomic is intended to be used
  relatively rarely.

Fix cfi in order to support the latest point.
