Uros Bizjak 890a0794b3 x86/ACPI/boot: Use try_cmpxchg() in __acpi_{acquire,release}_global_lock()
Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
__acpi_{acquire,release}_global_lock().  x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG
(and related MOV instruction in front of CMPXCHG).

Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when CMPXCHG
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.

Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE() to prevent
the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read.

No functional change intended.
