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.

inefficient, this patch improved them.

kernel:sched: LOAD_FREQ (4*HZ+61) avoids loadavg Moire

LOAD_FREQ is (5*HZ+1) to avoid high load average when idle:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2007/10/3/328568

I suggest (4*HZ+61) for a better distribution.

With some seconds based load (like SSL heartbeats)
and LOAD_FREQ at (5*HZ+1) I see Moire patterns like inverse sawtooth,
since 2 or 3 probes hit the jobs (load increases quickly),
followed by several probes missing it.

A 4.61 sec interval gives optimal distribution over when within a
second a probe is taken, as .61 is close to golden ratio phi 1.618...
(test in http://ripke.com/goldenratio.c).

12*4.61 = 55.32 secs is still close to a minute,
and 13*4.61=59.93 is even closer than the current 12*5.01=60.12
(with exponents EXP_x adjusted to a ratio of 13 instead of 12).
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.

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.

rcu: move struct rcu_head to its own file for SLQB and Netfilter use
include/filter.h: add missing rcu_types.h for kernel usage
ARM: net: JIT compiler for packet filters

based of Matt Evans's PPC64 implementation.

The compiler generates ARM instructions but interworking is
supported for Thumb2 kernels.

Supports both little and big endian. Unaligned loads are emitted
for ARMv6+. Not all the BPF opcodes that deal with ancillary data
are supported. The scratch memory of the filter lives on the stack.
Hardware integer division is used if it is available.

Enabled in the same way as for x86-64 and PPC64:

	echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

A value greater than 1 enables opcode output.

lib: Sparc's strncpy_from_user is generic enough, move under
 lib/

To use this, an architecture simply needs to:

1) Provide a user_addr_max() implementation via asm/uaccess.h

2) Add "select GENERIC_STRNCPY_FROM_USER" to their arch Kcnfig

3) Remove the existing strncpy_from_user() implementation and symbol
   exports their architecture had.
