Subject[PATCH RESEND] fs/ext4: Use try_cmpxchg in ext4_update_bh_state
Date
Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
ext4_update_bh_state. 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, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.

No functional change intended.
