Current minimum binutils supported (2.22) has ".machine altivec" support
as default, so there is no need to add a configure check for such
functionality. This patches removes the configure checks for it.
This patch cleanup some multiarch code related to memmmove
optimization. Initial IFUNC support added specialized wordcopy
symbols which turned in local IFUNC calls used by memmove default
implementation. The patch removes the internal IFUNC for wordcopy
symbols and uses local branches in the memmmove optimization instead.

This change by removing then and used the optimized memmove instead
for supported chips.
This patch simplify the default bcopy symbol for powerpc64 by just using
memmove instead of implementing using the default bcopy. Since the
symbol is deprecated, it trades speed by code size.
This removes code which actually never happens, and is already taken
care of in the function.
This is in the second part of select, when the __mach_msg() function
over the portset has returned something else than MACH_MSG_SUCCESS. I
guess in the past the value returned by __mach_msg() was stored in err,
so this code was necessary to set back err to 0, but now it is stored in
msgerr, so err is already still 0 by default. It can thus never contain
MACH_RCV_TIMED_OUT, i.e. the code is dead. The first case mentioned in
the comment is already handled: on time out with no message, err is
already still the default 0. On time out due to poll, err would still be
0, unless some of the io_select RPCs has returned EINTR, in which case
it contains EINTR. If any other io_select RPCs had returned a proper
answer, got!=0, and thus err is set to 0 just below. The code is thus
indeed not useful any more.
It looks like _hurd_thread_sigstate used to return with the sigstate
lock held long ago, but since that's no longer the case, don't unlock
something that isn't locked.
Note that it's unlikely this change fixes anything in practice since
its current implementation (on i386) makes this call a nop.
