locking/atomics: Simplify cmpxchg() instrumentation
Currently we define some fairly verbose wrappers for the cmpxchg()
family so that we can pass a pointer and size into kasan_check_write().
The wrappers duplicate the size-switching logic necessary in arch code,
and only work for scalar types. On some architectures, (cmp)xchg are
used on non-scalar types, and thus the instrumented wrappers need to be
able to handle this.
We could take the type-punning logic from {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), but this
makes the wrappers even more verbose, and requires several local
variables in the macros.
Instead, let's simplify the wrappers into simple macros which:
* snapshot the pointer into a single local variable, called __ai_ptr to
avoid conflicts with variables in the scope of the caller.
* call kasan_check_write() on __ai_ptr.
* invoke the relevant arch_*() function, passing the original arguments,
bar __ai_ptr being substituted for ptr.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
