[PATCH 09/18] arm64: xchg: patch in lse instructions when supported by the CPU

On CPUs which support the LSE atomic instructions introduced in ARMv8.1,
it makes sense to use them in preference to ll/sc sequences.
This patch introduces runtime patching of our xchg primitives so that
the LSE swp instruction (yes, you read right!) is used instead.
