[PATCH v2] sched, time: fix build error with 64 bit cputime_t on 32 bit systems

OK, lets try this again...

Gcc generated an error with the previous patch, because it evaluated
the branch that it was eliminating.  That means we cannot use a
sizeof directed branch, and have to fall back to simply defining which
cmpxchg to call for each cputime_t declaration.

Subject: sched,time: fix build error with 64 bit cputime_t on 32 bit systems

On 32 bit systems cmpxchg cannot handle 64 bit values, so
some additional magic is required to allow a 32 bit system
with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN enabled to build.

Make sure the correct cmpxchg function is used when doing
an atomic swap of a cputime_t.
