x86: Fix atomic64_xxx_cx8() functions
It appears about all functions in arch/x86/lib/atomic64_cx8_32.S are wrong in case cmpxchg8b must be restarted, because LOCK_PREFIX macro defines a label "1" clashing with other local labels : 1: some_instructions LOCK_PREFIX cmpxchg8b (%ebp) jne 1b / jumps to beginning of LOCK_PREFIX ! A possible fix is to use a magic label "672" in LOCK_PREFIX asm definition, similar to the "671" one we defined in LOCK_PREFIX_HERE.
