This patch adds an optimized memset implementation for POWER8. For
sizes from 0 to 255 bytes, a word/doubleword algorithm similar to
POWER7 optimized one is used.
For size higher than 255 two strategies are used:
1. If the constant is different than 0, the memory is written with
altivec vector instruction;
2. If constant is 0, dbcz instructions are used. The loop is unrolled
to clear 512 byte at time.
Using vector instructions increases throughput considerable, with a
double performance for sizes larger than 1024. The dcbz loops unrolls
also shows performance improvement, by doubling throughput for sizes
larger than 8192 bytes.
