Will Deacon f38d999c4d ARM: atomics: prefetch the destination word for write prior to strex
The cost of changing a cacheline from shared to exclusive state can be
significant, especially when this is triggered by an exclusive store,
since it may result in having to retry the transaction.

This patch prefixes our atomic access implementations with pldw
instructions (on CPUs which support them) to try and grab the line in
exclusive state from the start. Only the barrier-less functions are
updated, since memory barriers can limit the usefulness of prefetching
data.
