locking/arch: Avoid variable shadowing in local_try_cmpxchg()
[ Upstream commit d6b45484c130f4095313ae3edeb4aae662c12fb1 ]
Several architectures define arch_try_local_cmpxchg macro using
internal temporary variables named ___old, __old or _old. Remove
temporary varible in local_try_cmpxchg to avoid variable shadowing.
No functional change intended.
