Hello!

These patches fix some bugs found in -tip testing:

1.	Avoid a build error for some compiler arguments for out-of-tree
	modules.
2.	Add a generic atomic_or().
3.	Use atomic_or() to avoid a lockdep splat.

Following this will be specific atomic_or() implementations for a couple
of architectures.

							Thanx, Paul
