Uros Bizjak acf02be3c7 kexec: use atomic_try_cmpxchg_acquire() in kexec_trylock()
Use atomic_try_cmpxchg_acquire(*ptr, &old, new) instead of
atomic_cmpxchg_acquire(*ptr, old, new) == old in kexec_trylock().
x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so
this change saves a compare after cmpxchg.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
