Will Deacon 3a0310eb36 arm64: atomics: fix grossly inconsistent asm constraints for exclusives
Our uses of inline asm constraints for atomic operations are fairly
wild and varied. We basically need to guarantee the following:

  1. Any instructions with barrier implications
     (load-acquire/store-release) have a "memory" clobber

  2. When performing exclusive accesses, the addresing mode is generated
     using the "Q" constraint

  3. Atomic blocks which use the condition flags, have a "cc" clobber

This patch addresses these concerns which, as well as fixing the
semantics of the code, stops GCC complaining about impossible asm
constraints.
