x86: Add memory modify constraints to xchg() and cmpxchg()
commit 113fc5a upstream. [ Backport to .32 by Tomáš Janoušek <tomi@nomi.cz> ] xchg() and cmpxchg() modify their memory operands, not merely read them. For some versions of gcc the "memory" clobber has apparently dealt with the situation, but not for all. Originally-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: H.
