In order to deprecate the rte_atomic APIs, prevent the patches from
using rte_atomic APIs in the converted modules and compilers __sync
built-ins in all modules.
The converted modules:
lib/librte_distributor
lib/librte_hash
lib/librte_kni
lib/librte_lpm
lib/librte_rcu
lib/librte_ring
lib/librte_stack
lib/librte_vhost
lib/librte_timer
lib/librte_ipsec
drivers/event/octeontx
drivers/event/octeontx2
drivers/event/opdl
drivers/net/bnx2x
drivers/net/hinic
drivers/net/hns3
drivers/net/memif
drivers/net/thunderx
drivers/net/virtio
examples/l2fwd-event
On x86 the __atomic_thread_fence(__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST) is quite expensive
for SMP case. Flag the new code which use SEQ_CST memory ordering in
__atomic_thread_fence API.
