[PATCH libdrm] configure.ac: rework compiler builtin atomic tests

The libdrm autoconf test for atomics uses __sync_val_compare_and_swap with
the address of a function argument which triggers a gcc ICE on sparc64
with the OpenBSD system compiler.

Mark Kettenis pointed out that while other architectures probably spill the
argument onto the stack this is likely not the case on register window
architectures like SPARC and suggested passing a pointer as an argument
instead which avoids the ICE and allows the drm libraries requiring
atomics to build on sparc64 with the autoconf build.
