arm64: percpu: Implement this_cpu operations The generic this_cpu operations disable interrupts to ensure that the requested operation is protected from pre-emption. For arm64, this is overkill and can hurt throughput and latency. This patch provides arm64 specific implementations for the this_cpu operations. Rather than disable interrupts, we use the exclusive monitor or atomic operations as appropriate. The following operations are implemented: add, add_return, and, or, read, write, xchg. We also wire up a cmpxchg implementation from cmpxchg.h. Testing was performed using the percpu_test module and hackbench on a Juno board running 3.18-rc4.
