KVM: x86/mmu: Use try_cmpxchg64 in tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic
Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64 (*ptr, old, new) != old in tdp_mmu_set_spte_atomic. cmpxchg returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). Also, remove explicit assignment to iter->old_spte when cmpxchg fails, this is what try_cmpxchg does implicitly.
