This breaks allyesconfig builds on certain architectures, for example
MIPS 32-bit with SMP enabled, which doesn't support cmpxchg64:

  CC      drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.o   
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.c: In function ‘i40e_set_priv_flags’:
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.c:4326:6: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cmpxchg64’; did you mean ‘__cmpxchg’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  if (cmpxchg64(&pf->flags, orig_flags, new_flags) != orig_flags) {
      ^~~~~~~~~                                               
      __cmpxchg                                              

Should the driver now depend on 64BIT or something?
