The only usage was for pthread_spin_lock, introduced by 12d2dd7060,
as a way to optimize the code for certain architectures. Now that atomic
builtins are used by default, let the compiler use the best code sequence
for the atomic exchange.

Now that atomic builtins are used by default, we can rely on the
compiler to define when to use 64-bit atomic operations.
It allows the use of 64-bit atomic operations on some 32-bit ABIs where
they were not previously enabled due to missing pre-processor handling:
hppa, mips64n32, s390, and sparcv9.

All ABIs, except alpha and sparc, define it to
atomic_full_barrier/__sync_synchronize, which can be mapped to
__atomic_thread_fence (__ATOMIC_RELEASE).
For alpha, it uses a 'wmb' which does not map to any of C11
barriers.
For sparc it uses a stronger 'member #LoadStore | #StoreStore',
where the release barrier maps to just 'membar #StoreLoad'. The
patch keeps the sparc definition.
For PowerPC, it allows the use of lwsync for additional chips
(since _ARCH_PWR4 does not cover all chips that support it).
Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu.

All ABIs, except alpha, powerpc, and x86_64, define it to
atomic_full_barrier/__sync_synchronize, which can be mapped to
__atomic_thread_fence (__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST) in most cases, with the
exception of aarch64 (where the acquire fence is generated as
'dmb ishld' instead of 'dmb ish').
For s390x, it defaults to a memory barrier where __sync_synchronize
emits a 'bcr 15,0' (which the manual describes as pipeline
synchronization).
For PowerPC, it allows the use of lwsync for additional chips
(since _ARCH_PWR4 does not cover all chips that support it).
Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, where the acquire produces a different
instruction that the current code.

All ABIs save for sparcv9 and s390 defines it to __sync_synchronize,
which can be mapped to __atomic_thread_fence (__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST).
For Sparc, it uses a stricter #StoreStore|#LoadStore|#StoreLoad|#LoadLoad
instead of the #StoreLoad generated by __sync_synchronize.
For s390x, it defaults to a memory barrier where __sync_synchronize
emits a 'bcr 15,0' (which the manual describes as pipeline synchronization).
The barrier is used only in one place (pthread_mutex_setprioceiling),
and using a stricter barrier for s390 is ok performance-wise.

Use the flag output constraints feature available in gcc 6+
("=@cc<cond>") instead of explicitly setting a boolean variable
with SETcc instruction. This approach decouples the instruction
that sets the flags from the code that consumes them, allowing
the compiler to create better code when working with flags users.
Instead of e.g.:
lock add %esi,(%rdi)
sets %sil
test %sil,%sil
jne <...>
the compiler now generates:
lock add %esi,(%rdi)
js <...>
No functional changes intended.
