Linus Torvalds bafaecd11d x86-64: support native xadd rwsem implementation
This one is much faster than the spinlock based fallback rwsem code,
with certain artifical benchmarks having shown 300%+ improvement on
threaded page faults etc.

Again, note the 32767-thread limit here. So this really does need that
whole "make rwsem_count_t be 64-bit and fix the BIAS values to match"
extension on top of it, but that is conceptually a totally independent
issue.

NOT TESTED! The original patch that this all was based on were tested by
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki, but maybe I screwed up something when I created the
cleaned-up series, so caveat emptor..

Also note that it _may_ be a good idea to mark some more registers
clobbered on x86-64 in the inline asms instead of saving/restoring them.
They are inline functions, but they are only used in places where there
are not a lot of live registers _anyway_, so doing for example the
clobbers of %r8-%r11 in the asm wouldn't make the fast-path code any
worse, and would make the slow-path code smaller.

(Not that the slow-path really matters to that degree. Saving a few
unnecessary registers is the _least_ of our problems when we hit the slow
path. The instruction/cycle counting really only matters in the fast
path).

/*
* x86-64 rwsem wrappers
*
* This interfaces the inline asm code to the slow-path
* C routines. We need to save the call-clobbered regs
* that the asm does not mark as clobbered, and move the
* argument from %rax to %rdi.
*
* NOTE! We don't need to save %rax, because the functions
* will always return the semaphore pointer in %rax (which
* is also the input argument to these helpers)
*
* The following can clobber %rdx because the asm clobbers it:
* call_rwsem_down_write_failed
* call_rwsem_wake
* but %rdi, %rsi, %rcx, %r8-r11 always need saving.
