Nice work!

AFAICT, your work doesn't depend on anything that ppc-specific, right?
So maybe we can use it as a general approach for a fallback
implementation on the archs without u8/u16 atomics. ;-)

Forgive me if this is too paranoid, but I think we can save the
READ_ONCE() in the loop if we change the code into the following,
because cmpxchg will return the "new" value, if the cmp part fails.

	newv = READ_ONCE(*p);

	do {
		oldv = newv;
		ret = (oldv & bitmask) >> bitoff;
		if (skip && ret != old)
			break;
		newv = (oldv & ~bitmask) | (new << bitoff);
		newv = __cmpxchg_u32##u32sfx((void *)p, oldv, newv);
	} while(newv != oldv);

                                         ^^^^^^^

This should be sfx, right? Otherwise, all the newly added xchg will
call __cmpxchg_u32_local, this will result in wrong ordering guarantees.

I don't think we need the "volatile" modifier here, because READ_ONCE()
and __cmpxchg_u32_* all have "volatile" semantics IIUC, so maybe we can
save a paramter for the __XCHG_GEN macro.
