locking/atomic, sched: Unexport fetch_or()
This patch functionally reverts: 5fd7a09cfb8c ("atomic: Export fetch_or()") During the merge Linus observed that the generic version of fetch_or() was messy: " This makes the ugly "fetch_or()" macro that the scheduler used internally a new generic helper, and does a bad job at it. " e23604edac2a Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type can vary across architectures. Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version instead. While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression re-evaluations in the loop.
