Christophe Leroy 2676b89eb8 powerpc/lib: optimise PPC32 memcmp
At the time being, memcmp() compares two chunks of memory
byte per byte.

This patch optimises the comparison by comparing word by word.

On the same way as commit 15c2d45d17 ("powerpc: Add 64bit
optimised memcmp"), this patch moves memcmp() into a dedicated
file named memcmp_32.S

A small benchmark performed on an 8xx comparing two chuncks
of 512 bytes performed 100000 times gives:

Before : 5852274 TB ticks
After:   1488638 TB ticks

This is almost 4 times faster

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
