x86/asm: Use CC_SET/CC_OUT in percpu_cmpxchg8b_double() to micro-optimize code generation
Use CC_SET(z)/CC_OUT(z) instead of explicit SETZ instruction. Using these two defines, the compiler that supports generation of condition code outputs from inline assembly flags generates e.g.: cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi) jne 172255 <__kmalloc+0x65> instead of: cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi) sete %al test %al,%al je 172255 <__kmalloc+0x65> Note that older compilers now generate: cmpxchg8b %fs:(%esi) sete %cl test %cl,%cl je 173a85 <__kmalloc+0x65> since we have to mark that cmpxchg8b instruction outputs to %eax register and this way clobbers the value in the register.
