Use __this_cpu_try_cmpxchg() instead of
__this_cpu_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
preload_this_cpu_lock(). x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg.
The generated code improves from:
4bb6: 48 85 f6 test %rsi,%rsi
4bb9: 0f 84 10 fa ff ff je 45cf <...>
4bbf: 4c 89 e8 mov %r13,%rax
4bc2: 65 48 0f b1 35 00 00 cmpxchg %rsi,%gs:0x0(%rip)
4bc9: 00 00
4bcb: 48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax
4bce: 0f 84 fb f9 ff ff je 45cf <...>
to:
4bb6: 48 85 f6 test %rsi,%rsi
4bb9: 0f 84 10 fa ff ff je 45cf <...>
4bbf: 4c 89 e8 mov %r13,%rax

No functional change intended.
