    atl1c: Fix work event interrupt/task races
    
    The mechanism used to initiate work events from the interrupt
    handler has a classic read/modify/write race between the interrupt
    handler that sets the condition, and the worker task that reads and
    clears the condition. Close these races by using atomic
    bit fields.
