Lets design userland interface first, then decide how to implement it
in the kernel. Patches are useless at this point.

And actually... without patterns, existing interface works just
fine. Even if you can't "atomically" write values to three different
files, operation is so fast that user will not see the intermediate
state, anyway. So solving the "atomic" issue without solving the rest
is pretty much useless.
