atomics/treewide: Remove atomic_inc_not_zero_hint()

While documentation suggests atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() will perform better
than atomic_inc_not_zero(), this is unlikely to be the case. No architectures
implement atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() directly, and thus it either falls back to
atomic_inc_not_zero(), or a loop using atomic_cmpxchg().

Whenever the hint does not match the value in memory, the repeated use of
atomic_cmpxchg() will be more expensive than the read that
atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() attempts to avoid. For architectures with LL/SC
atomics, a read cannot be avoided, and it would always be better to use
atomic_inc_not_zero() directly. For other architectures, their own
atomic_inc_not_zero() is likely to be more optimal than an atomic_cmpxchg()
loop regardless.

Generally, atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() is liable to perform worse than
atomic_inc_not_zero(). Further, atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() only exists
for atomic_t, and not atomic64_t or atomic_long_t, and there is only one
user in the kernel tree.

Given all this, let's remove atomic_inc_not_zero_hint(), and migrate the
existing user over to atomic_inc_not_zero().

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
