locking/qspinlock/x86: Micro-optimize virt_spin_lock()

Optimize virt_spin_lock() to use simpler and faster:

  atomic_try_cmpxchg(*ptr, &val, new)

instead of:

  atomic_cmpxchg(*ptr, val, new) == val

The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag, so
this change saves a compare after the CMPXCHG.

Also optimize retry loop a bit. atomic_try_cmpxchg() fails iff
&lock->val != 0, so there is no need to load and compare the
lock value again - cpu_relax() can be unconditinally called in
this case. This allows us to generate optimized:

  1f:	ba 01 00 00 00       	mov    $0x1,%edx
  24:	8b 03                	mov    (%rbx),%eax
  26:	85 c0                	test   %eax,%eax
  28:	75 63                	jne    8d <...>
  2a:	f0 0f b1 13          	lock cmpxchg %edx,(%rbx)
  2e:	75 5d                	jne    8d <...>
...
  8d:	f3 90                	pause
  8f:	eb 93                	jmp    24 <...>

instead of:

  1f:	ba 01 00 00 00       	mov    $0x1,%edx
  24:	8b 03                	mov    (%rbx),%eax
  26:	85 c0                	test   %eax,%eax
  28:	75 13                	jne    3d <...>
  2a:	f0 0f b1 13          	lock cmpxchg %edx,(%rbx)
  2e:	85 c0                	test   %eax,%eax
  30:	75 f2                	jne    24 <...>
...
  3d:	f3 90                	pause
  3f:	eb e3                	jmp    24 <...>
