A simple implementation that only supports the word size and does not have a fallback mode (would require a spinlock). And 32 and 64 bit support for cmpxchg_double. cmpxchg double uses the cmpxchg8b or cmpxchg16b instruction on x86 processors to compare and swap 2 machine words. This allows lockless algorithms to move more context information through critical sections. Set a flag CONFIG_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE to signal the support of that feature during kernel builds.
