Documentation/litmus-tests/atomic: Add a test for smp_mb__after_atomic()
We already use a litmus test in atomic_t.txt to describe atomic RMW + smp_mb__after_atomic() is stronger than acquire (both the read and the write parts are ordered). So make it a litmus test in atomic-tests directory, so that people can access the litmus easily. Additionally, change the processor numbers "P1, P2" to "P0, P1" in atomic_t.txt for the consistency with the processor numbers in the litmus test, which herd can handle.
