Please write cmpxchg loops in the form:

	atomic_long_t *ptr = &uclamp_maps[clamp_id][group_id].adata;
	union uclamp_map old, new;

	old.data = atomic_long_read(ptr);
	do {
		new.data = old.data;
		new.se_cound--;
	} while (!atomic_long_try_cmpxchg(ptr, &old.data, new.data));


(same for all the others of course)
