That sounds reasonable, excluding arm and tile_32, all are defined as
signed (even for related 32-bits functions, arm and tile are also use
signed).

For atomic64_add_negative(), like arm, tile also has the same issue
(unsigned type is never less than zero).

Tomorrow, I will send patch v2 for arm, and another fix patch for tile.
:-)

Thanks.
