BUG/MEDIUM: threads: fix double-word CAS on non-optimized 32-bit platforms
On armv7 haproxy doesn't work because of the fixes on the double-word
CAS. There are two issues. The first one is that the last argument in
case of dwcas is a pointer to the set of value and not a value ; the
second is that it's not enough to cast the data as (void*) since it will
be a single word. Let's fix this by using the pointers as an array of
long. This was tested on i386, armv7, x86_64 and aarch64 and it is now
fine. An alternate approach using a struct was attempted as well but it
used to produce less optimal code.
This fix must be backported to 1.9. This fixes github issue #105.
