[PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc32: optimise csum_partial() loop

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Wed Aug 05 2015 - 09:29:50 EST


On the 8xx, load latency is 2 cycles and taking branches also takes
2 cycles. So let's unroll the loop.

v2: Only use lwzu for the last load as lwzu has undocumented
additional latency
