Subject: [PATCH v3] locking/lockref/x86: Enable ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF for X86_CMPXCHG64

Commit bc08b449ee14ace4d869adaa1bb35a44ce68d775 enabled lockless
reference count updates using cmpxchg() only for x86_64 and
left x86_32 behind due to inability to detect support for
cmpxchg8b instruction. Nowadays, we can use CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64
for this purpose. Also, by using try_cmpxchg64() instead of cmpxchg64()
in CMPXCHG_LOOP macro, the compiler actually produces sane code,
improving lockref_get_not_zero main loop from:

v3:
 - Update commit message to refer to lockref_get_not_zero
   instead of removed lockref_get_or_lock
v2:
 - select ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF for CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG which
   is unconditionally defined for X86_64
