#     powerpc/powernv: Fix concurrency issue with npu->mmio_atsd_usage
#     
#     We've encountered a performance issue when multiple processors stress
#     {get,put}_mmio_atsd_reg(). These functions contend for
#     mmio_atsd_usage, an unsigned long used as a bitmask.
#     
#     The accesses to mmio_atsd_usage are done using test_and_set_bit_lock()
#     and clear_bit_unlock(). As implemented, both of these will require
#     a (successful) stwcx to that same cache line.
#     
#     What we end up with is thread A, attempting to unlock, being slowed by
#     other threads repeatedly attempting to lock. A's stwcx instructions
#     fail and retry because the memory reservation is lost every time a
#     different thread beats it to the punch.
#     
#     There may be a long-term way to fix this at a larger scale, but for
#     now resolve the immediate problem by gating our call to
#     test_and_set_bit_lock() with one to test_bit(), which is obviously
#     implemented without using a store.
#
