Actually, this is the first time I see patch #1, but since it depends on
HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS it doesn't really matter, the functions
already exist.

I'm not even sure that the memset in patch #1 really gets more efficient
with the u32/u16 write (and if it does, why doesn't the compiler know
it) so I guess I'm not even sure I see much point in patch #1, but that
doesn't really matter.

Anyway, I don't mind if you want to take this directly either, just let
me know.
