Subject: [PATCH v12 04/11] qspinlock: Extract out code snippets for the next patch

This is a preparatory patch that extracts out the following 2 code
snippets to prepare for the next performance optimization patch.

 1) the logic for the exchange of new and previous tail code words
    into a new xchg_tail() function.
 2) the logic for clearing the pending bit and setting the locked bit
    into a new clear_pending_set_locked() function.

This patch also simplifies the trylock operation before queuing by
calling queue_spin_trylock() directly.
