Subject: [PATCH] [x86] Move cmpxchg fallbacks to a generic place

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c defines a few fallback functions
(cmpxchg_*()) that are used when the CPU doesn't support cmpxchg
and/or cmpxchg64 natively. However, while defined in an Intel-specific
file, these functions are also used for CPUs from other vendors when
they don't support cmpxchg and/or cmpxchg64. This breaks the
compilation when support for Intel CPUs is disabled.

This patch moves these functions to a new
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cmpxchg.c file, unconditionally compiled when
X86_32 is enabled.
