Thanks for the background. I posted a possible fix for your review at
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2017-August/034845.html.
I'd find your feedback valuable even if you prefer just to wait for
atomics to merge to master, because I'm probably going to end up using
existing releases on Weston for quite some time.
