2ba5b4130e Documentation/litmus-tests: Make cmpxchg() tests safe for klitmus
The four litmus tests in Documentation/litmus-tests/atomic do not
declare all of their local variables.  Although this is just fine for LKMM
analysis by herd7, it causes build failures when run in-kernel by klitmus.
This commit therefore adjusts these tests to declare all local variables.

This commit adds four litmus tests showing that a failing cmpxchg()
operation is unordered unless followed by an smp_mb__after_atomic()
operation.
