bcm64: fix kernels cmpswap() function
spectacular bug. cmpswap() had a sign extension bug using sign extending MOV to load the old compare value and LDXRW using zero extension while the CMP instruction compared 64 bit registers. this caused cmpswap with negative old value always to fail. interestingly, libc's version of this function was fine.
