Subject[tip:locking/core] locking/spinlocks: Remove an instruction from spin and write locks

locking/spinlocks: Remove an instruction from spin and write locks

Both spin locks and write locks currently do:

f0 0f b1 17 lock cmpxchg %edx,(%rdi)
85 c0 test %eax,%eax
75 05 jne [slowpath]

This 'test' insn is superfluous; the cmpxchg insn sets the Z flag
appropriately. Peter pointed out that using atomic_try_cmpxchg_acquire()
will let the compiler know this is true. Comparing before/after
disassemblies show the only effect is to remove this insn.

Take this opportunity to make the spin & write lock code resemble each
other more closely and have similar likely() hints.
