Another approach would be to override __atomic_op_{acquire,release} and
use things like:
"FENCE r,rw" -- (load) ACQUIRE
"FENCE rw,w" -- (store) RELEASE
And then you only need to provide _relaxed atomics.
Also, and I didn't check for that, you need to provide:
smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release(), atomic_read_acquire(),
atomic_store_release().
