Subject: [PATCH] locking/x86/xen: Use try_cmpxchg() in xen_alloc_p2m_entry()
Date: Fri,  5 Apr 2024 10:32:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240405083335.507471-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)

Use try_cmpxchg() instead of cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old.

The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG.

Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old"
when CMPXCHG fails. There is no need to explicitly assign
old *ptr value to the temporary, which can simplify the
surrounding source code.

No functional change intended.
