[SPARC]: Mark as emulating cmpxchg, add appropriate depends for DRM.
The DRM code depends on an atomic version of cmpxchg(), which is not available on sparc32. Since other platforms besides sparc32 have this issue a KCONFIG option is added for it. Signed-off-by: Martin Habets <errandir_news@mph.eclipse.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
