Subject: [PATCH v4 09/35] compiler-context-analysis: Change __cond_acquires to
take return value
While Sparse is oblivious to the return value of conditional acquire
functions, Clang's context analysis needs to know the return value
which indicates successful acquisition.
Add the additional argument, and convert existing uses.
Notably, Clang's interpretation of the value merely relates to the use
in a later conditional branch, i.e. 1 ==> context guard acquired in
branch taken if condition non-zero, and 0 ==> context guard acquired in
branch taken if condition is zero. Given the precise value does not
matter, introduce symbolic variants to use instead of either 0 or 1,
which should be more intuitive.
No functional change intended.
Signed-off-by: Marco Elver <elver@...gle.com>

v4:
* Rename capability -> context analysis.
v2:
* Use symbolic values for __cond_acquires() and __cond_acquires_shared()
(suggested by Bart).
