[PATCH-tip v2 04/10] locking/rwsem: Micro-optimize rwsem_try_read_lock_unqueued()

From: Waiman Long
Date: Fri Feb 15 2019 - 15:51:16 EST


The atomic_long_cmpxchg_acquire() in rwsem_try_read_lock_unqueued() is
replaced by atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_acquire() to simpify the code and
generate slightly better assembly code. There is no functional change.
