Vineet Gupta 51a021244b atomic64: no need for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE 
This came to light when implementing native 64-bit atomics for ARCv2.

The atomic64 self-test code uses CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE
to check whether atomic64_dec_if_positive() is available.  It seems it
was needed when not every arch defined it.  However as of current code
the Kconfig option seems needless

 - for CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 it is auto-enabled in lib/Kconfig and a
   generic definition of API is present lib/atomic64.c
 - arches with native 64-bit atomics select it in arch/*/Kconfig and
   define the API in their headers

So I see no point in keeping the Kconfig option

Compile tested for:
 - blackfin (CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
 - x86 (!CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
 - ia64
