x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_read()
Optimize atomic64_read() as a special open-coded
cmpxchg8b variant. This generates nicer code:
arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.o:
text data bss dec hex filename
435 0 0 435 1b3 atomic64_32.o.before
431 0 0 431 1af atomic64_32.o.after
md5:
bd8ab95e69c93518578bfaf0ea3be4d9 atomic64_32.o.before.asm
2bdfd4bd1f6b7b61b7fc127aef90ce3b atomic64_32.o.after.asm
