[patch 01/23] Fall back on interrupt disable in cmpxchg8b on 80386 and 80486

[Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca>]

Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on
cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic
updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior.

The comment:
/* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */

already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg
implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local
can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local
cpu.

This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64
and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486.
