[PATCH] ppc64: speedup cmpxchg
cmpxchg has the following code:
__typeof__(*(ptr)) _o_ = (o);
__typeof__(*(ptr)) _n_ = (n);
Unfortunately it makes gcc 4.0 store and load the variables to the stack.
Eg in atomic_dec_and_test we get:
stw r10,112(r1)
stw r9,116(r1)
lwz r9,112(r1)
lwz r0,116(r1)
x86 is just casting the values so do that instead. Also change __xchg*
and __cmpxchg* to take unsigned values, removing a few sign extensions.
