powerpc: atomic: Implement acquire/release/relaxed variants for cmpxchg
Implement cmpxchg{,64}_relaxed and atomic{,64}_cmpxchg_relaxed, based on which _release variants can be built. To avoid superfluous barriers in _acquire variants, we implement these operations with assembly code rather use __atomic_op_acquire() to build them automatically. For the same reason, we keep the assembly implementation of fully ordered cmpxchg operations. However, we don't do the similar for _release, because that will require putting barriers in the middle of ll/sc loops, which is probably a bad idea. Note cmpxchg{,64}_relaxed and atomic{,64}_cmpxchg_relaxed are not compiler barriers. Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
