xen/arm: sync_bitops
sync_bitops functions are equivalent to the SMP implementation of the original functions, independently from CONFIG_SMP being defined. We need them because _set_bit etc are not SMP safe if !CONFIG_SMP. But under Xen you might be communicating with a completely external entity who might be on another CPU (e.g. two uniprocessor guests communicating via event channels and grant tables). So we need a variant of the bit ops which are SMP safe even on a UP kernel.
