Use !try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) != old in xlog_cil_insert_pcp_aggregate(). x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in 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 re-read the value in the loop. Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE to prevent the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read. No functional change intended.

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 reStructuredText markup notation. 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.
