Adds little-endian support to optimised strchr assembly. I've also
tweaked the big-endian code a little. In power7/strchr.S there's a
check in the tail of the function that we didn't match 0 before
finding a c match, done by comparing leading zero counts. It's just
as valid, and quicker, to compare the raw output from cmpb.
Another little tweak is to use rldimi/insrdi in place of rlwimi for
the power7 strchr functions. Since rlwimi is cracked, it is a few
cycles slower. rldimi can be used on the 32-bit power7 functions
too.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strchr.S (strchr): Add little-endian
support. Correct typos, formatting. Optimize tail. Use insrdi
rather than rlwimi.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power7/strchr.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strchrnul.S (__strchrnul): Add
little-endian support. Correct typos.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power7/strchrnul.S: Likewise. Use insrdi
rather than rlwimi.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/strchr.S (rTMP4, rTMP5): Define. Use
in loop and entry code to keep "and." results.
(strchr): Add little-endian support. Comment. Move cntlzd
earlier in tail.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/strchr.S: Likewise.
