MIPS will soon not be a part of Imagination Technologies, and as such
many @imgtec.com email addresses will no longer be valid. This patch
updates the addresses for those who:
- Have 10 or more patches in mainline authored using an @imgtec.com
email address, or any patches dated within the past year.
- Are still with Imagination but leaving as part of the MIPS business
unit, as determined from an internal email address list.
- Haven't already updated their email address (ie. JamesH) or expressed
a desire to be excluded (ie. Maciej).
- Acked v2 or earlier of this patch, which leaves Deng-Cheng, Matt &
myself.
New addresses are of the form firstname.lastname@mips.com, and all
verified against an internal email address list. An entry is added to
.mailmap for each person such that get_maintainer.pl will report the new
addresses rather than @imgtec.com addresses which will soon be dead.
Instances of the affected addresses throughout the tree are then
mechanically replaced with the new @mips.com address.

Implement support for 1 & 2 byte cmpxchg() using read-modify-write atop
a 4 byte cmpxchg(). This allows us to support these atomic operations
despite the MIPS ISA only providing 4 & 8 byte atomic operations.
This is required in order to support queued rwlocks (qrwlock) in a later
patch, since these make use of a 1 byte cmpxchg() in their slow path.
