/*
 * A signed long type for operations which are atomic for a single CPU.
 * Usually used in combination with per-cpu variables.
 *
 * This is the default implementation, which uses atomic_long_t.  Which is
 * rather pointless.  The whole point behind local_t is that some processors
 * can perform atomic adds and subtracts in a manner which is atomic wrt IRQs
 * running on this CPU.  local_t allows exploitation of such capabilities.
