It's ugly to use it to assign a dynamic element like this.

ctx->rcvused = (atomic_t)ATOMIC_INIT(0);

Need the cast to avoid getting 
error: expected expression before '{' token
#define ATOMIC_INIT(i) { (i) }
There are only two drivers in the kernel doing this vs
a lot doing initialization using the atomic_set option.

I'm happy to change it though if you would prefer.
