Commita76d7bd96d("ARM: 7467/1: mutex: use generic xchg-based implementation for ARMv6+") removed the barrier-less, ARM-specific mutex implementation in favour of the generic xchg-based code. Since then, a bug was uncovered in the xchg code when running on SMP platforms, due to interactions between the locking paths and the MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER code. This was fixed in0bce9c46bf("mutex: place lock in contended state after fastpath_lock failure"), however, the atomic_dec-based mutex algorithm is now marginally more efficient for ARM (~0.5% improvement in hackbench scores on dual A15). This patch moves ARMv6+ platforms to the atomic_dec-based mutex code.
