User space can use the MEM_OP ioctl to make storage key checked reads and writes to the guest, however, it has no way of performing atomic, key checked, accesses to the guest. Extend the MEM_OP ioctl in order to allow for this, by adding a cmpxchg op. For now, support this op for absolute accesses only. This op can be used, for example, to set the device-state-change indicator and the adapter-local-summary indicator atomically. Signed-off-by:
