Subject: [PATCH 13/15] x86: add cmpxchg_flag() variant

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@...rix.com>

Most callers of cmpxchg() direcly compare RETURN with OLD to see if it was
successful.  This results in unnecessary conditional comparisons
and conditionals since the cmpxchg instruction directly sets the flags
to indicate success/failure.

Add cmpxchg_flag() variants which return a boolean flag directly indicating
success.  Unfortunately an asm() statement can't directly export status
status flags, but sete isn't too bad.
