What is the purpose of the atomics? Doing atomic_load/atomic_store
is just as racy as if you had not used atomics at all. Should you be
using atomic_cmpset instead, e.g.:
case ARC4_ENTER_HAVE:
/* XXX: What does it mean for this to fail? */
atomic_cmpset_int(&iniseed_state, ARC4_ENTER_NONE,
ARC4_ENTER_HAVE);
break;
