Subject: [PATCH v5 4/7] powerpc/qspinlock: Add ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_XCHG32

From: Guo Ren <guoren@...ux.alibaba.com>

We don't have native hw xchg16 instruction, so let qspinlock
generic code to deal with it.

Using the full-word atomic xchg instructions implement xchg16 has
the semantic risk for atomic operations.

This patch cancels the dependency of on qspinlock generic code on
architecture's xchg16.
