The open-coded mutex implementation for ARMv6+ cores suffers from a severe lack of barriers, so in the uncontended case we don't actually protect any accesses performed during the critical section. Furthermore, the code is largely a duplication of the ARMv6+ atomic_dec code but optimised to remove a branch instruction, as the mutex fastpath was previously inlined. Now that this is executed out-of-line, we can reuse the atomic access code for the locking (in fact, we use the xchg code as this produces shorter critical sections). This patch uses the generic xchg based implementation for mutexes on ARMv6+, which introduces barriers to the lock/unlock operations and also has the benefit of removing a fair amount of inline assembly code.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Since: if (unlikely(__res || __ex_flag)) produces worse code on ARM than: if (unlikely(__res | __ex_flag)) I therefore made it more explicit: __res |= __ex_flag; if (unlikely(__res != 0)) so it is not seen as a typo again. Also made everything static inline rather than macros for better readability (both produce the same code after all). And finally added missing \t from multi-line assembly code.

add the ARM version of mutex.h, which is optimized in assembly for ARMv6, and uses the xchg implementation on pre-ARMv6. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
