futex: Ensure futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is present
The boot-time detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() has a bug on some 32-bit arm builds, and Thomas Gleixner suggested that setting CONFIG_HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG would avoid the problem, as it is always present anyway. Looking into which other architectures could do the same showed that almost all architectures have it, the exceptions being: - some old 32-bit MIPS uniprocessor cores without ll/sc - one xtensa variant with no SMP - 32-bit SPARC when built for SMP Fix MIPS And Xtensa by rearranging the generic code to let it be used as a fallback. For SPARC, the SMP definition just ends up turning off futex anyway, so this can be done at Kconfig time instead. Note that sparc32 glibc requires the CASA instruction for its mutexes anyway, which is only available when running on SPARCv9 or LEON CPUs, but needs to be implemented in the sparc32 kernel for those.
