[PATCH V2 0/2] csky: Optimize with acquire & release for atomic & cmpxchg

From: Guo Ren <guoren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Optimize arch_xchg|cmpxchg|cmpxchg_local with ASM acquire|release
instructions instead of previous C based.

The generic atomic.h used cmpxchg to implement the atomic
operations, it will cause daul loop to reduce the forward
guarantee. The patch implement csky custom atomic operations with
ldex/stex instructions for the best performance.

Important reference comment by Rutland:
8e86f0b409a4 ("arm64: atomics: fix use of acquire + release for
full barrier semantics")

Changes in V2:
- Fixup use of acquire + release for barrier semantics by Rutland.
