The ORDERING section of Documentation/atomic_t.txt can easily be read as saying that conditional atomic RMW operations that fail are ordered when those operations have the _acquire() or _release() suffixes. This is not the case, therefore update this section to make it clear that failed conditional atomic RMW operations provide no ordering.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
