Fix the following build error, seen when building sparc32:allmodconfig.

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.c:
        In function 'i40e_set_priv_flags':
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.c:4150:2: error:
        implicit declaration of function 'cmpxchg64'

That fixes the build:

@@ -72,5 +72,6 @@ __cmpxchg(volatile void *ptr, unsigned long old, unsigned 
long new_, int size)
        ((__typeof__(*(ptr)))__cmpxchg_local_generic((ptr), (unsigned long)(o),\
                        (unsigned long)(n), sizeof(*(ptr))))
  #define cmpxchg64_local(ptr, o, n) __cmpxchg64_local_generic((ptr), (o), (n))
+#define cmpxchg64(ptr, o, n)   cmpxchg64_local((ptr), (o), (n))
#endif /* __ARCH_SPARC_CMPXCHG__ */

but it's wrong.  cmpxchg64_local() is only atomic on the current cpu
so using it for plain cmpxchg64() is not going to work.


Yeah, I was concerned about that. My bad.

Unfortunately I don't know enough about sparc to provide a better solution.
Consider this a problem report, then.
