Mark Rutland ade5ef9280 atomics: Make conditional ops return 'bool'
Some of the atomics return a status value, which is a boolean value
describing whether the operation was performed. To make it clear that
this is a boolean value, let's update the common fallbacks to return
bool, fixing up the return values and comments likewise.

At the same time, let's simplify the description of the operations in
their respective comments.

The instrumented atomics and generic atomic64 implementation are updated
accordingly.

Note that atomic64_dec_if_positive() doesn't follow the usual test op
pattern, and returns the would-be decremented value. This is not
changed.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
