feecaf73bb ARM: includecheck fix: atomic.h
fix the following 'make includecheck' warning:

  arch/arm/include/asm/atomic.h: asm/system.h is included more than once.

72099ed271 asm-generic: rename atomic.h to atomic-long.h
The existing asm-generic/atomic.h only defines the
atomic_long type. This renames it to atomic-long.h
so we have a place to add a truly generic atomic.h
that can be used on all non-SMP systems.

bac4e960b5 [ARM] barriers: improve xchg, bitops and atomic SMP barriers
Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking:

- cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on
  architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory
  read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent
  ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM.

- test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers.

So put these barriers in.  Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub
operations which do not require barriers.

ea43546750 atomic_t: unify all arch definitions
The atomic_t type cannot currently be used in some header files because it
would create an include loop with asm/atomic.h.  Move the type definition
to linux/types.h to break the loop.

4baa992243 [ARM] move include/asm-arm to arch/arm/include/asm
Move platform independent header files to arch/arm/include/asm, leaving
those in asm/arch* and asm/plat* alone.
