No architectures implement atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() directly, and thus it either falls back to atomic_inc_not_zero(), or a loop using atomic_cmpxchg(). Whenever the hint does not match the value in memory, the repeated use of atomic_cmpxchg() will be more expensive than the read that atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() attempts to avoid. For architectures with LL/SC atomics, a read cannot be avoided, and it would always be better to use atomic_inc_not_zero() directly. For other architectures, their own atomic_inc_not_zero() is likely to be more optimal than an atomic_cmpxchg() loop regardless. Generally, atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() is liable to perform worse than atomic_inc_not_zero(). Further, atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() only exists for atomic_t, and not atomic64_t or atomic_long_t, and there is only one user in the kernel tree. Given all this, let's remove atomic_inc_not_zero_hint(), and migrate the existing user over to atomic_inc_not_zero(). There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
