The performance of the atomic_xchg is better than atomic_cmpxchg because
no comparison is required. While the value of @fq_timer_on can only be 0
or 1. Let's use atomic_xchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg here because we
only need to check that the value changes from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 1.

Looks reasonable to me - the "compare" part is already covered by the separate atomic_read(), and as you say there's no harm if the "exchange" part races as long as it's still atomic.
