2018-11-05Enable atomic swap and store macro with acquire and release orderingSirshak Das1-2/+3
Add atomic swap and store macro with acquire and release ordering respectively. Variable in question is interupt_pending variable which is used as guard variable by input nodes to process the device queue. Atomic Swap is used with Acquire ordering as writes or reads following this in program order should not be reordered before the swap. Atomic Store is used with Release ordering, as post store the node is added to pending list.
