[PATCH] epoll: Use try_cmpxchg in list_add_tail_lockless

[Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com>]

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old
in list_add_tail_lockless. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after
cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).

No functional change intended.
