Here is the latest set of patch for the 8/16/64 bit atomic gcc builtins. On the kernel side a new LWS is implemented allowing for variable size CAS. On gcc's side, the new LWS is used for 8/16/64 bit atomic builtins, keeping the old LWS for 32bit ops. Since 8 and 16 bit ops were broken, it's best to use the new LWS unconditionally for these.
I've pushed your kernel patch upstream for kernel 3.17. Furthermore I've scheduled it for backporting into kernels >= 3.13. I would have liked to go back to kernel 3.0, but then more patches would have needed to be backported. Maybe someone now can start to push the gcc patch upstream? Thanks!
