de99dab06f7917095586517f1ab0e6dab7a03322 atomics: update documentation
Some of the constraints on operand sizes have been relaxed, so adjust the
documentation.
Deprecate atomic_mb_read and atomic_mb_set; it is not really possible to
use them correctly because they do not interoperate with sequentially-consistent
RMW operations.
Finally, extend the memory barrier pairing section to cover acquire and
release semantics in general, roughly based on the KVM Forum 2016 talk,
"<atomic.h> weapons".
