alpha: xchg/cmpxchg cleanup and fixes


- "_local" versions of xchg/cmpxchg functions duplicate code
  of non-local ones (quite a few pages of assembler), except
  memory barriers. We can generate these two variants from a
  single header file using simple macros;

- convert xchg macro back to inline function using always_inline
  attribute;

- use proper argument types for cmpxchg_u8/u16 functions
  to fix a problem with negative arguments.
