percpu: Generic support for this_cpu_cmpxchg_double()
Introduce this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(). this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() allows the comparison between two consecutive words and replaces them if there is a match. bool this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(pcp1, pcp2, old_word1, old_word2, new_word1, new_word2) this_cpu_cmpxchg_double does not return the old value (difficult since there are two words) but a boolean indicating if the operation was successful. The first percpu variable must be double word aligned! -tj: Updated to return bool instead of int, converted size check to BUILD_BUG_ON() instead of VM_BUG_ON() and other cosmetic changes.
