MIPS: fix truncation in __cmpxchg_small for short values
__cmpxchg_small erroneously uses u8 for load comparison which can be either char or short. This patch changes the local variable to u32 which is sufficiently sized, as the loaded value is already masked and shifted appropriately. Using an integer size avoids any unnecessary canonicalization from use of non native widths. This patch is part of a series that adapts the MIPS small word atomics code for xchg and cmpxchg on short and char to RISC-V.
