Since C11 memory model is adopted in DPDK now[1], use GCC's 
atomic builtins in test cases.
as previously discussed these atomics are not "C11" they are
direct use of gcc builtins. please don't incorporate C11 into the title
of the patches or commit messages since it isn't.

please do not integrate a patch that directly uses gcc builtins and
extensions please maintain abstractions under the rte_ namespace.
specifically this patch substantially increases coupling to a single
compiler implementation reducing portability.

as previously requested, please establish at a minimum macros in the
rte_ namespace for this.

thanks.
