x86: Fix atomic64_xxx_cx8() functions

It appears about all functions in arch/x86/lib/atomic64_cx8_32.S
are wrong in case cmpxchg8b must be restarted, because
LOCK_PREFIX macro defines a label "1" clashing with other local
labels :

1:
	some_instructions
	LOCK_PREFIX
	cmpxchg8b (%ebp)
	jne 1b  / jumps to beginning of LOCK_PREFIX !

A possible fix is to use a magic label "672" in LOCK_PREFIX asm
definition, similar to the "671" one we defined in
LOCK_PREFIX_HERE.
