sbitmap: replace CAS with atomic and
sbitmap_deferred_clear() does CAS loop to propagate cleared bits, replace it with equivalent atomic bitwise and. That's slightly faster and makes wait-free instead of lock-free as before. The atomic can be relaxed (i.e. barrier-less) because following sbitmap_get*() deal with synchronisation, see comments in sbitmap_queue_clear(). It's ok to cast to atomic_long_t, that's what bitops/lock.h does. Signed-off-by: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
