[PATCH RESEND 2/2] ucount: Use atomic_long_try_cmpxchg in atomic_long_inc_below

[Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com>]

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

Also, atomic_long_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old"
when cmpxchg fails, enabling further code simplifications.

No functional change intended.
