Currently, we limit atomic loads and stores to either pointer or integer types. I would like to propose that we extend this to allow both floating point and vector types which meet the other requirements. (i.e. power-of-two multiple of 8 bits, and aligned) This will enable a couple of follow on changes: 1) Teaching the vectorizer how to vectorize unordered atomic loads and stores 2)
