futex: Allow architectures to skip futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() test
commit 03b8c7b623c80af264c4c8d6111e5c6289933666 upstream. If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init(). This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result, and also allows the compiler to optimize a couple of if statements away.
