Add the generated atomic headers to driver-api/basics.rst in order to
provide documentation for the Linux kernel's atomic operations.
At the same time, dtop the x86 atomic header, which provides kerneldoc
comments for some arch_atomic*_*() operations. The arch_atomic*_*()
operations are now purely an implenentation detail of the
raw_atomic*_*() ops, and outside of implementing the atomics, code
should use the raw_atomic*_*() forms.

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.
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.
