X86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG (and related move instruction in front of CMPXCHG). Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when CMPXCHG fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop. No functional change intended.
