x86/apic: Fix atomic update of offset in reserve_eilvt_offset()
The detection of atomic update failure in reserve_eilvt_offset() is
not correct. The value returned by atomic_cmpxchg() should be compared
to the old value from the location to be updated.
If these two are the same, then atomic update succeeded and
"eilvt_offsets[offset]" location is updated to "new" in an atomic way.
Otherwise, the atomic update failed and it should be retried with the
value from "eilvt_offsets[offset]" - exactly what atomic_try_cmpxchg()
does in a correct and more optimal way.
Fixes: a68c439 ("apic, x86: Check if EILVT APIC registers are available (AMD only)")
