Following patch is part of upstream. Are you testing with following patch/upstream.
With this patch from Nikhilesh, this __ atomic__ compiling issue was gone.
The two patches fix the same issue.
Should I abandon my patch?
I see this note on: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/Toolchain.html
Note
Clang does not currently automatically link against libatomic when using libgcc_s. You may need to manually add -latomic to support this configuration when using non-native atomic operations (if you see link errors referring to __atomic_* functions).

event/octeontx: fix build with clang 6
Clang 6 & 7 fail to naturally align packed structs due to this clang
can't use 8byte atomic primitives and splits them into lesser atomic
primitives. To use lesser atomic primitives we need to link libatomic
(-latomic), instead supply alignment attribute to the compiler.

The TX function is shared between TAP and TUN PMD. Checking TUN-TAP
type field will ensure the TAP PMD will always have protocol field
as 0.

Please add the reason and compilation error log.
and make sure to fix check patch.sh and check-gitlog.sh errors.
Sure I will rework and submit a V3 patch. Thanks for your comments.

The root cause is analyzed, the -latomic needs only when atomic
operations on variable are not aligned. The fix added to align variable where it was
not correct.This fix the performance issue as well, adding -latomic
will simply hide the problem by not letting to know the
alignment/performance issue. IMO, If there is no dependency with -latomic
in current code base then we should NOT add new dependency.
