Uros Bizjak 693fc06e98 epoll: use try_cmpxchg in list_add_tail_lockless ...

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
list_add_tail_lockless.  x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF
flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move
instruction in front of cmpxchg).

No functional change intended.
