Yup, sounds like a better idea, because using __KERNEL__
where atomic.h has some #ifdef SMP branching seems like a very inappropriate
thing to do.

I think it's nicer to write a
AC_TRY_COMPILE
thing to check if including atomic.h will provide a read_atomic function.

# and goes off to check if the last upload did get compiled by the
# sparc build daemon, and finds out that it actually has been compiled.
