x86-32: fix cmpxchg8b_emu build error with clang
The kernel test robot reported that clang no longer compiles the 32-bit
x86 kernel in some configurations due to commit 95ece48
("locking/atomic/x86: Rewrite x86_32 arch_atomic64_{,fetch}_{and,or,xor}()
functions").
The build fails with
arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg_32.h:149:9: error: inline assembly requires more registers than available
and the reason seems to be that not only does the cmpxchg8b instruction
need four fixed registers (EDX:EAX and ECX:EBX), with the emulation
fallback the inline asm also wants a fifth fixed register for the
address (it uses %esi for that, but that's just a software convention
with cmpxchg8b_emu).
Avoiding using another pointer input to the asm (and just forcing it to
use the "0(%esi)" addressing that we end up requiring for the sw
fallback) seems to fix the issue.
