percpu: Generic this_cpu_cmpxchg() and this_cpu_xchg support

Generic code to provide new per cpu atomic features

	this_cpu_cmpxchg
	this_cpu_xchg

Fallback occurs to functions using interrupts disable/enable
to ensure correct per cpu atomicity.

Fallback to regular cmpxchg and xchg is not possible since per cpu atomic
semantics include the guarantee that the current cpus per cpu data is
accessed atomically. Use of regular cmpxchg and xchg requires the
determination of the address of the per cpu data before regular cmpxchg
or xchg which therefore cannot be atomically included in an xchg or
cmpxchg without segment override.

tj: - Relocated new ops to conform better to the general organization.
    - This patch contains a trivial comment fix.
