[PATCH 3/9] atomic.h : i386 "64 bits" ready fix.

This patch changes the cmpxchg, xchg and add_unless atomic operations on i386 so
they will still work if, for instance, they are cut'n'pasted to operate of
atomic64_t types. The correct fix might be to create inline functions for
cmpxchg for every architecture, but until then, it looks safer to put this kind
of automatic typing instead of using an integer.
