I believe the correct form would be:

    (@pxref{Atomic Windows,,, elisp, The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual})

That is, no need to repeat the topic title, as it's the same as the node
name.  But the printed manual name is needed as the last argument.  See
(info "(texinfo) Four and Five Arguments"), and grep for xref.*elisp in
doc/ for similar examples.

I guess the code part of the patch is alright, but I'm not too familiar
with how atomic windows work.
