lib/genalloc.c: make the avail variable an atomic_long_t

If the amount of resources allocated to a gen_pool exceeds 2^32 then the
avail atomic overflows and this causes problems when clients try and
borrow resources from the pool.  This is only expected to be an issue on
64 bit systems.

Add the <linux/atomic.h> header to pull in atomic_long* operations.  So
that 32 bit systems continue to use atomic32_t but 64 bit systems can
use atomic64_t.
