ARM counterpart to r248291:
In the comparison failure block of a cmpxchg expansion, the initial
ldrex/ldxr will not be followed by a matching strex/stxr.
On ARM/AArch64, this unnecessarily ties up the execution monitor,
which might have a negative performance impact on some uarchs.
Instead, release the monitor in the failure block.
The clrex instruction was designed for this: use it.

"Exclusive access instructions and Shareable memory locations".

On pre-v6 hardware, 'MOV lo, lo' gives undefined results, so such copies need to
be avoided. This patch trades simplicity for implementation time at the expense
of performance... As they say: correctness first, then performance.
See http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2014-August/075998.html for a few
ideas on how to make this better.

We should update the usages to all of the results;
otherwise, we might get assertion failure or SEGV during
the type legalization of ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS
with two or more illegal types.
For example, in the following sequence, both i8 and i1
might be illegal in some target, e.g. armv5, mipsel, mips64el,
%0 = cmpxchg i8* %ptr, i8 %desire, i8 %new monotonic monotonic
%1 = extractvalue { i8, i1 } %0, 1
Since both i8 and i1 should be legalized, the corresponding
ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS dag will be checked/replaced/updated
twice.
If we don't update the usage to *ALL* of the results in the
first round, the DAG for extractvalue might be processed earlier.
The GetPromotedInteger() will result in assertion failure,
because its operand (i.e. the success bit of cmpxchg) is not
promoted beforehand.
