Summary:
I didn't realize that we already allowed atomic load/store of pointers,
it was added in 2012 by r162146. This patch updates the documentation
and tightens the verifier by using DataLayout to make sure that the
stored size is byte-sized and power-of-two. DataLayout is also used for
integers, and while I'm here I updated the corresponding code for
cmpxchg and rmw.
See the following discussion for context and upcoming changes to
add floating-point and vector atomics:

This directory contains testcases that the verifier is supposed to detect as
malformed LLVM code. Testcases for situations that the verifier incorrectly
identifies as malformed should go in the test/Assembler directory.
