ARM: 7854/1: lockref: add support for lockless lockrefs using cmpxchg64
Our spinlocks are only 32-bit (2x16-bit tickets) and, on processors with 64-bit atomic instructions, cmpxchg64 makes use of the double-word exclusive accessors. This patch wires up the cmpxchg-based lockless lockref implementation for ARM. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
