libxfs: fix atomic64_t poorly for 32-bit architectures
In commit de555f66, we converted the atomic64_t implementation to use
the liburcu uatomic_* functions. Regrettably, nobody tried to build
xfsprogs on a 32-bit architecture (hint: maintainers don't scale well
anymore) so nobody noticed that the build fails due to the unknown
symbol _uatomic_link_error. This is what happens when liburcu doesn't
know how to perform atomic updates to a variable of a certain size, due
to some horrid macro magic in urcu.h.
Rather than a strict revert to non-atomic updates for these platforms or
(which would introduce a landmine) or roll everything back for the sake
of older platforms, I went with providing a custom atomic64_t
implementation that uses a single pthread mutex. This enables us to
work around the fact that the kernel atomic64_t API doesn't require a
special initializer function, and is probably good enough since there
are only a handful of atomic64_t counters in the kernel.
Clean up the type declarations of a couple of variables in libxlog to
match the kernel usage, though that's probably overkill.
Eventually we'll want to decide if we're deprecating 32-bit, but this
fixes them in the mean time.
