"While 'atomic' has a volatile qualifier, this is a historical
artifact and the pointer passed to it should not be volatile."
Furthermore "It is very important that all accesses to a
particular integer or pointer be performed using only this API"
(from https://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.68/glib-Atomic-Operations.html)
Hence initialization of atomic variables is changed to also use
this API, instead of directly initializing the value.
This also fixes a few cases where atomic variables were
accessed directly.
