[PATCH] make local_t signed
local_t's were defined to be unsigned. This increases confusion because
atomic_t's are signed. The patch goes through and changes all implementations
to use signed longs throughout.
Also, x86-64 was using 32-bit quantities for the value passed into local_add()
and local_sub(). Fixed.
All (actually, both) existing users have been audited.
(Also s/__inline__/inline/ in x86_64/local.h)
