smpboot: use atomic_try_cmpxchg in cpu_wait_death and cpu_report_death
Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in cpu_wait_death and cpu_report_death. 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, atomic_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg fails, enabling further code simplifications. No functional change intended.
