How about something like:

u64 a_utime, a_stime, a_sum_exec_runtime;

retry_utime:
        a_utime = atomic64_read(&a->utime);
        if (b->utime > a_utime) {
                if (atomic64_cmpxchg(&a->utime, a_utime, b->utime) != a_utime)
                        goto retry_utime;
        }

retry_stime:
        a_stime = atomic64_read(&a->stime);
        if (b->stime > a_stime) {
                if (atomic64_cmpxchg(&a->stime, a_stime, b->stime) != a_stime)
                        goto retry_stime;
        }

retry_sum_exec_runtime:
        a_sum_exec_runtime = atomic64_read(&a->sum_exec_runtime);
        if (b->sum_exec_runtime > a_sum_exec_runtime) {
                if (atomic64_cmpxchg(&a->sum_exec_runtime, a_sum_exec_runtime,
                                     b->sum_exec_runtime) != a_sum_exec_runtime)
                        goto retry_sum_exec_runtime;
        }
