Size suffix ignored in atomic builtins?

Hi,

Currently atomic intrinsics are overloaded by the datatype. That allow us to use a non-suffixed version for any data-type, like this:

signed char sc;
void foo(void) {
(void) __sync_fetch_and_add(&sc, 1);
}

instead of explicitly specifying data-type, as here:

signed char sc;
void foo(void) {
(void) __sync_fetch_and_add_1(&sc, 1);
}

For both of these examples clang generates
%0 = atomicrmw add i8* @sc, i8 1 seq_cst

However, it looks like due to this overloading, we completely ignore the size suffix. For instance, for

signed char sc;
void foo(void) {
(void) __sync_fetch_and_add_4(&sc, 1);
}

clang will generate the same IR with i8:

%0 = atomicrmw add i8* @sc, i8 1 seq_cst ; << i8, instead of i32

Is it an expected behavior, or a bug?

Thanks,
Michael
