Subject: [PATCH] iommu/iova: Replace cmpxchg with xchg in queue_iova

From: Yuqi Jin <[email protected]>

The performance of the atomic_xchg is better than atomic_cmpxchg because
no comparison is required. While the value of @fq_timer_on can only be 0
or 1. Let's use atomic_xchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg here because we
only need to check that the value changes from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 1.

Looks reasonable to me - the "compare" part is already covered by the
separate atomic_read(), and as you say there's no harm if the "exchange"
part races as long as it's still atomic.

Hmm, that mail wasn't in my inbox, but b4 found it. I'll need to look
why it didn't make it...
