x86: atomic64: Reduce size of functions
cmpxchg8b is a huge instruction in terms of register footprint,
we almost never want to inline it, not even within the same
code module.
GCC 4.3 still messes up for two functions, under-judging the
true cost of this instruction - so annotate two key functions
to reduce the bloat:
arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.o:
text data bss dec hex filename
1763 0 0 1763 6e3 atomic64_32.o.before
435 0 0 435 1b3 atomic64_32.o.after
