From: Matteo Croce <mcroce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Replace the assembly mem{cpy,move,set} with C equivalent.
Try to access RAM with the largest bit width possible, but without
doing unaligned accesses.
A further improvement could be to use multiple read and writes as the
assembly version was trying to do.
Tested on a BeagleV Starlight with a SiFive U74 core, where the
improvement is noticeable.
v3 -> v4:
- incorporate changes from proposed generic version:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210617152754.17960-1-mcroce@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
v2 -> v3:
- alias mem* to __mem* and not viceversa
- use __alias instead of a tail call
v1 -> v2:
- reduce the threshold from 64 to 16 bytes
- fix KASAN build
- optimize memset
