x86/hyperv: Use atomic_try_cmpxchg() to micro-optimize hv_nmi_unknown()
Use atomic_try_cmpxchg() instead of atomic_cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old
in hv_nmi_unknown(). On x86 the CMPXCHG instruction returns success in
the ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG. The generated
asm code improves from:
3e: 65 8b 15 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
45: b8 ff ff ff ff mov $0xffffffff,%eax
4a: f0 0f b1 15 00 00 00 lock cmpxchg %edx,0x0(%rip)
51: 00
52: 83 f8 ff cmp $0xffffffff,%eax
55: 0f 95 c0 setne %al
to:
3e: 65 8b 15 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
45: b8 ff ff ff ff mov $0xffffffff,%eax
4a: f0 0f b1 15 00 00 00 lock cmpxchg %edx,0x0(%rip)
51: 00

No functional change intended.
