locking/qspinlock: Use atomic_try_cmpxchg_relaxed() in xchg_tail()
Use atomic_try_cmpxchg_relaxed(*ptr, &old, new) instead of atomic_cmpxchg_relaxed (*ptr, old, new) == old in xchg_tail(). x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG. No functional change intended. Since this code requires NR_CPUS >= 16k, I have tested it by unconditionally setting _Q_PENDING_BITS to 1 in <asm-generic/qspinlock_types.h>.
