posix-timers: Use atomic64_try_cmpxchg() in __update_gt_cputime()
Use atomic64_try_cmpxchg() instead of atomic64_cmpxchg() in
__update_gt_cputime(). The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF
flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg() (and related move
instruction in front of cmpxchg()).
Also, atomic64_try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old"
when cmpxchg() fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.
No functional change intended.
