perf/x86/rapl: Use local64_try_cmpxchg in rapl_event_update()

Use local64_try_cmpxchg() instead of local64_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, 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.
