Use generic_cmpxchg_local() for arch_cmpxchg_local() implementation
in SH architecture because it does not implement arch_cmpxchg_local().
I do not think this is correct.

The implementation in <asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h> is UP-only (and it only
disables interrupts), whereas arch/sh can be built SMP. We should probably add
some guards into <asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h> for that as we have in
<asm-generic/cmpxchg.h>.
Isn't cmpxchg_local for the data which only needs to ensure to do cmpxchg
on local CPU?
asm-generic/cmpxchg.h is only for UP, will throw an error for SMP building:

#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
#error "Cannot use generic cmpxchg on SMP"
#endif

SH arch seems it does have SMP systems. The arch/sh/include/asm/cmpxchg.h has
the following codes:

#if defined(CONFIG_GUSA_RB)
#include <asm/cmpxchg-grb.h>
#elif defined(CONFIG_CPU_SH4A)
#include <asm/cmpxchg-llsc.h>
#elif defined(CONFIG_CPU_J2) && defined(CONFIG_SMP)
#include <asm/cmpxchg-cas.h>
#else
#include <asm/cmpxchg-irq.h>
#endif
So I think it doesn't care about the other CPUs (IOW, it should not touched by
other CPUs), so it only considers UP case. E.g. on x86, arch_cmpxchg_local() is
defined as raw "cmpxchg" without lock prefix.

#define __cmpxchg_local(ptr, old, new, size)                            \
         __raw_cmpxchg((ptr), (old), (new), (size), "")


Thank you,

I think the right thing to do here is to define arch_cmpxchg_local() in terms
of arch_cmpxchg(), i.e. at the bottom of arch/sh's <asm/cmpxchg.h> add:

#define arch_cmpxchg_local              arch_cmpxchg
I agree too. Might not be performance optimized but guarantees correctness.
