Added optimized ARM RWSEM algorithm.
Added optimized CRC32 algorithm.
sched: don't call task_group() many times in set_task_rq()

It improves perfomance, especially if autogroup enabled.

The size of set_task_rq() was 0x180 and now it is 0xa0.

lib/string: use glibc version

the performance of memcpy and memmove of the general version is very
inefficient, this patch improved them.

lib/memcopy: use glibc version

the kernel's memcpy and memmove is very inefficient. But the glibc version is
quite fast, in some cases it is 10 times faster than the kernel version. So I
introduce some memory copy macros and functions of the glibc to improve the
kernel version's performance.

The strategy of the memory functions is:
1. Copy bytes until the destination pointer is aligned.
2. Copy words in unrolled loops.  If the source and destination are not
   aligned in the same way, use word memory operations, but shift and merge
   two read words before writing.
3. Copy the few remaining bytes.

lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1

For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root
filesystem.  The speed of the kernel sha-1 implementation has a major
impact on our boot performance.

To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized
sha-1 implementation used in git.  With the git sha-1 implementation, we
see a 11.7% improvement in boot time.

10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest.

Before:

  Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14

After (with git sha-1, this patch):

  Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07

The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only
needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel
implementation needed 320 bytes.

Remove ARM sha1 routines

Since commit 8827a4a6b397b07a341ba7fd36ffb91a7835207d
("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1"), the ARM SHA1
routines no longer work. The reason? They depended on the larger
320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is just 16 words
(64 bytes). So the assembly version would overwrite the stack randomly.

The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved
C version, so there's no reason to keep it around.  At least that was
the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language
version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code
was faster.

sched: Fix nohz load accounting -- again!

commit c308b56b5398779cd3da0f62ab26b0453494c3d4 upstream.
[ backported to 3.0 by Kerin Millar <kerframil@gmail.com>]

Various people reported nohz load tracking still being wrecked, but Doug
spotted the actual problem. We fold the nohz remainder in too soon,
causing us to loose samples and under-account.

So instead of playing catch-up up-front, always do a single load-fold
with whatever state we encounter and only then fold the nohz remainder
and play catch-up.
