cl_atomic API deals with signed 32-bit integer, so it is legal to have
negative values. Probably you want to put CL_ASSERTs in the code where
outstanding counters are maintained instead of cl_atomic.

IMHO it was found fast when the bug was reliably reproduced. Anyway feel
free to post patch if you think such CL_ASSERTs will be helpful for you.
