Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for the patch.

I still would like to see an explanation why an architecture-specific version 
is sometimes needed, and why this implementation is a reasonable default. 
Furthermore, it looks very similar to the blackfin implementation, so if you 
can't unify the two I'd like to know why.
