Subject: Boot crash fix for 68030
Please queue the two commits below for stable:
- The second commit fixes a boot crash on 68030,
- The first commit is a prerequisite for the second.
This fix is needed on all versions that contain commit
e4f2dfbb5e92be4e46c0625f4f8eb101110f756f ("m68k: implement futex.h to support
userspace robust futexes and PI mutexes"), i.e. v3.10 until v3.14.
The first commit only applies cleanly to v3.14.
I appended a backported version for v3.10..v3.13 at the bottom of this email.
Thanks for applying!

futex: Allow architectures to skip futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() test
If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there
is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init().
This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result,
and also allows the compiler to optimize a couple of if statements away.

m68k: Skip futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() test
Skip the futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() test in futex_init(). It causes a
fatal exception on 68030 (and presumably 68020 also).
