sparc64: FUTEX_OP_ANDN fix
Correct sparc64's implementation of FUTEX_OP_ANDN to do a
bitwise negate of the oparg parameter before applying the
AND operation. All other archs that support FUTEX_OP_ANDN
either negate oparg explicitly (frv, ia64, mips, sh, x86),
or do so indirectly by using an and-not instruction (powerpc).
Since sparc64 has and-not, I chose to use that solution.
I've not found any use of FUTEX_OP_ANDN in glibc so the
impact of this bug is probably minor. But other user-space
components may try to use it so it should still get fixed.
