Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
napi_if_scheduled_mark_missed. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg
(and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).

Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails, enabling further code simplifications.
