Subject: sparc32: Implement xchg and atomic_xchg using ATOMIC_HASH locks

[ Upstream commit 1a17fdc4f4ed06b63fac1937470378a5441a663a ]

Atomicity between xchg and cmpxchg cannot be guaranteed when xchg is
implemented with a swap and cmpxchg is implemented with locks.
Without this, e.g. mcs_spin_lock and mcs_spin_unlock are broken.
