the following series need merge, they remove some old rte atomics and normalize the use of gcc builtins to set the tree up to be more easily converted to stdatomics. https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=27530 https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=27552 please review the linked series if you have time, since the impact of the changes may be broad it would help David and Thomas. as soon as the above series are merged i will begin submitting the actual stdatomics series for review. thanks!
