Mark Rutland 00d5551cc4 locking/atomics/x86: Reduce arch_cmpxchg64*() instrumentation
Currently x86's arch_cmpxchg64() and arch_cmpxchg64_local() are
instrumented twice, as they call into instrumented atomics rather than
their arch_ equivalents.

A call to cmpxchg64() results in:

  cmpxchg64()
    kasan_check_write()
    arch_cmpxchg64()
      cmpxchg()
        kasan_check_write()
        arch_cmpxchg()

Let's fix this up and call the arch_ equivalents, resulting in:

  cmpxchg64()
    kasan_check_write()
    arch_cmpxchg64()
      arch_cmpxchg()

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
