arm64: spinlock: retry trylock operation if strex fails on free lock
commit
4ecf7ccb1973fd826456b6ab1e6dfafe9023c753 upstream.
An exclusive store instruction may fail for reasons other than lock
contention (e.g. a cache eviction during the critical section) so, in
line with other architectures using similar exclusive instructions
(alpha, mips, powerpc), retry the trylock operation if the lock appears
to be free but the strex reported failure.
