sparc64: Improvde documentation and readability of atomic backoff code.
Document what's going on in asm/backoff.h with a large and descriptive comment. Refer to it above the cpu_relax() definition in asm/processor_64.h Rename the pause patching section to have "3insn" in it's name like the other patching sections do. Based upon feedback from Sam Ravnborg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
