Before this patch enabling and disabling irqs in assembler code and by
the hardware wasn't tracked completly.
I had to transpose two instructions in arch/arm/lib/bitops.h because
restore_irqs doesn't preserve the flags with CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y

Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking:
- cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on
architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory
read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent
ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM.
- test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers.
So put these barriers in. Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub
operations which do not require barriers.

save_and_disable_irqs does not need to use mov + msr (which was
introduced to work around a documentation bug which was propagated
into binutils.) Use msr with an immediate constant, and if we're
building for ARMv6 or later, use the new CPSID instruction.

The 'K' extension adds several new instructions to the ARMv6 ISA
which are primerily useful for SMP.

We sometimes forgot to check whether the exclusive store succeeded.
Ensure that we always check. Also ensure that we always use the
out of line versions, since the inline versions are not SMP safe.

If we found that the bit was already in the desired state, we
would skip performing the operation, and write random data back.
