[llvm-dev] New atomic handling status

[Philip Reames via llvm-dev]

In short, I hit a major stumbling block.  I hadn't account for the fact 
that some atomic stores dependent on element type (float vs int for 
instance) for legality.

I've also been pulled away from working on this.  We should probably 
revert a bunch of the changes until I get a chance to restart this as it 
will require a redo on the design anyways. (Note that default behavior 
is not effected, this is all under a flag for the moment.)
