  Grant Grundler was asking for more detail about correct usage of local
  atomic operations and suggested adding the resulting summary to
  local_ops.txt.

  "Please add a bit more detail. If DaveM is correct (he normally is), then
  there must be limits on how the local_t can be used in the kernel process
  and interrupt contexts. I'd like those rules spelled out very clearly
  since it's easy to get wrong and tracking down such a bug is quite painful."
