locking/atomic/x86: Introduce arch_atomic64_read_nonatomic() to x86_32



Introduce arch_atomic64_read_nonatomic() for 32-bit targets to load
the value from atomic64_t location in a non-atomic way. This
function is intended to be used in cases where a subsequent atomic
operation will handle the torn value, and can be used to prime the
first iteration of unconditional try_cmpxchg() loops.

 * Read an atomic64_t non-atomically.

 * This is intended to be used in cases where a subsequent atomic operation
 * will handle the torn value, and can be used to prime the first iteration
 * of unconditional try_cmpxchg() loops, e.g.:
 *
 * 	s64 val = arch_atomic64_read_nonatomic(v);
 * 	do { } while (!arch_atomic64_try_cmpxchg(v, &val, val OP i);
 *
 * This is NOT safe to use where the value is not always checked by a
 * subsequent atomic operation, such as in conditional try_cmpxchg() loops
 * that can break before the atomic operation, e.g.:
 *
 * 	s64 val = arch_atomic64_read_nonatomic(v);
 * 	do {
 * 		if (condition(val))
 * 			break;
 * 	} while (!arch_atomic64_try_cmpxchg(v, &val, val OP i);
