Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: export __cmpxchg_small()

Export the symbol __cmpxchg_small() for btrfs.ko that will use it to
store blk_status_t, which is u8. Reported by LKP:

>> ERROR: modpost: "__cmpxchg_small" [fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko] undefined!

Patch using the cmpxchg() https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/1d4f72f7fee285b2ddf4bf62b0ac0fd89def5417.1728575379.git.naohiro.aota@wdc.com/

Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@...e.com>

I can merge it via the btrfs git tree along the fix or wait until it's
merged the usual way, please let me know.
