We can avoid the unnecessary barrier on non LL/SC architectures,
such as x86. Instead, use the smp_mb__after_atomic().

Personally, I'd typically tend to use 'test_and_set_bit', as this not
only implies a barrier, but also captures any errors; if you just use
'set_bit' you'll never know if the bit had been set already.
