Currently net/sunrpc/xprtmultipath.c is the only file outside of arch/
headers and asm-generic/ headers to include <asm/cmpxhcg.h>, apparently
for the use of cmpxchg_relaxed().

However, many architectures do not provide cmpxchg_relaxed() in their
<asm/cmpxhcg.h>, and it is necessary to include <linux/atomic.h> to get
this definition, as noted in Documentation/core-api/atomic_ops.rst:

  If someone wants to use xchg(), cmpxchg() and their variants,
  linux/atomic.h should be included rather than asm/cmpxchg.h, unless
  the code is in arch/* and can take care of itself.

Evidently we're getting the right header this via some transitive
include today, but this isn't something we can/should rely upon,
especially with ongoing rework of the atomic headers for KASAN
instrumentation.

Let's fix the code to include <linux/atomic.h>, avoiding fragility.

I sent this about a year ago [1], but got no response. This still applies atop
of v4.17-rc3.

I'm currently trying to implement instrumented atomics for arm64, and it would
be great to have this fixed.

Mark.
