Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
atomic_inc_below. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction
in front of cmpxchg).
Also, atomic_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when
cmpxchg fails, enabling further code simplifications.
No functional change intended.
