Or, do you think it's necessary to define a dedicated tst_atomic_t type,
such as:
typedef int32_t tst_atomic_t;
and use it explicitly for all variables that are subject to atomic
operations?

This way, we can clearly declare which values are intended for atomic use,
improving type safety and code clarity.
