Thanks for review. Here is an updated patch. I've changed the comments 
and added the POSIX requirement in pthread_spin_trylock.

@architecture maintainers:
I've added defines of ATOMIC_EXCHANGE_USES_CAS in the architecture 
specific atomic-machine.h files.
See comment in include/atomic.h:
/* ATOMIC_EXCHANGE_USES_CAS is equal to 1 if atomic_exchange operations
    are implemented based on a CAS loop; otherwise, this is 0 and we assume
    that the atomic_exchange operations could provide better performance
    than a CAS loop.  */

Can review the definition to 0 or 1 in the atomic-machine.h file of your 
architecture, please?

ChangeLog:

	* NEWS: Mention new spinlock implementation.
	* include/atomic.h:
	(__atomic_val_bysize): Cast type to omit volatile qualifier.

	* nptl/pthread_spin_init.c (pthread_spin_init):
	Use atomic_store_relaxed.
