Provide the generic sync_try_cmpxchg() function from the
raw_ prefixed version, also adding explicit instrumentation.

The patch amends existing scripts to generate sync_try_cmpxchg()
locking primitive and its raw_sync_try_cmpxchg() fallback, while
leaving existing macros from the try_cmpxchg() family unchanged.

The target can define its own arch_sync_try_cmpxchg() to override the
generic version of raw_sync_try_cmpxchg(). This allows the target
to generate more optimal assembly than the generic version.

Additionally, the patch renames two scripts to better reflect
whet they really do.
