[PATCH 2/2] x86/percpu: Use raw_cpu_try_cmpxchg in preempt_count_set

From: Uros Bizjak
Date: Wed Aug 30 2023 - 15:04:41 EST


Use raw_cpu_try_cmpxchg instead of raw_cpu_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old.
x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a
compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).

Also, raw_cpu_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when
cmpxchg fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.

No functional change intended.
