(In reply to David Chisnall from comment #3)
Seems like a C lock implementation for large types is allowed to place the lock
in the shared memory with the object.  (Not that using shared memory or _Atomic
structs is necessarily a good idea.)

"The size, representation, and alignment of an atomic type need not be the same
as those of the corresponding unqualified type."
