[PATCH v0.9.1 2/6] mm, x86/uaccess: add userspace atomic helpers

From: Peter Oskolkov
Date: Mon Nov 22 2021 - 16:13:51 EST


In addition to futexes needing to do atomic operations in the userspace,
a second use case is now in the works (UMCG, see
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210917180323.278250-1-posk@xxxxxxxxxx/),
so a generic facility to perform these operations has been called for
(see https://lore.kernel.org/all/87ilyk9xc0.ffs@tglx/).

Add a set of generic helpers to perform 32/64-bit xchg and cmpxchg
operations in the userspace. Also implement the required
architecture-specific support on x86_64.
