Subject: parisc: Use double word condition in 64bit CAS operation
commit 1b59ddfcf1678de38a1f8ca9fb8ea5eebeff1843 upstream.
The attached change fixes the condition used in the "sub" instruction.
A double word comparison is needed. This fixes the 64-bit LWS CAS
operation on 64-bit kernels.
I can now enable 64-bit atomic support in GCC.
