  For some reason, the BITS_PER_LONG == 64 case of atomic_long_set
  was using atomic_set instead of atomic64_set. This does not jive
  with architectures which use an inline instead of a #define to
  implement their atomic_set() primitives.

  Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit
  platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h). We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall
  back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms.

  The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive
  use of atomic64.

  This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in
  asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type. Its 32 bits
  on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms.

  Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.
