Casueword(9) on ll/sc architectures must be prepared for userspace constantly modifying the same cache line as containing the CAS word, and not loop infinitely. Otherwise, rogue userspace livelocks the kernel. To fix the issue, change casueword(9) interface to return new value 1 indicating that either comparision or store failed, instead of relying on the oldval == *oldvalp comparison. The primitive no longer retries the operation if it failed spuriously. Modify callers of casueword(9), all in kern_umtx.c, to handle retries, and react to stops and requests to terminate between retries. On x86, despite cmpxchg should not return spurious failures, we can take advantage of the new interface and just return PSL.ZF.
