[patch 03/30] SPARC64: Fix futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic implementation.

From: Chris Wright
Date: Wed Nov 15 2006 - 21:53:40 EST


-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

From: David Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I copied the logic from ll/sc arch implementations, but that
was wrong and makes no sense at all. Just do a straight
compare-exchange instruction, just like x86.

Based upon bug reports from Dennis Gilmore and Fabio Massimo.
