[PATCH] zram: use try_cmpxchg in update_used_max

From: Uros Bizjak
Date: Tue Oct 18 2022 - 10:52:36 EST


Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
update_used_max. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move
instruction in front of cmpxchg).

Also, reorder code a bit to remove additional compare and
conditional jump from the assembly code. Together, hese two
changes save 15 bytes from the function when compiled for x86_64.

No functional change intended.
