On weakly ordered memory architectures (such as ARM), it can be of great benefit to omit the barrier instructions where they are not needed. This patch moves the lockless lockref code over to a cmpxchg64_relaxed operation, which doesn't provide barrier semantics.

lockref: use cmpxchg64 explicitly for lockless updates 2013-09-20T16:04:28+00:00 Will Deacon will.deacon@arm.com 2013-09-19T18:06:46+00:00 8f4c344696b9f9f8471d7f342076ef10ed7f66a5 The cmpxchg() function tends not to support 64-bit arguments on 32-bit architectures. This could be either due to use of unsigned long arguments (like on ARM) or lack of instruction support (cmpxchgq on x86). However, these architectures may implement a specific cmpxchg64() function to provide 64-bit cmpxchg support instead. Since the lockref code requires a 64-bit cmpxchg and relies on the architecture selecting ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF, move to using cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg and allow 32-bit architectures to make use of the lockless lockref implementation.
