arch/sparc: Introduce cmpxchg_u8 SPARC
SPARC supports 32 bit and 64 bit cmpxchg right now. Add support for 8 bit (1 byte) cmpxchg. This is required to support queued rwlocks feature which uses 1 byte cmpxchg. The function __cmpxchg_u8 here uses the 4 byte cas instruction with a byte manipulation to achieve 1 byte cmpxchg.
