ARM: use generic strnlen_user and strncpy_from_user functions

This patch implements the word-at-a-time interface for ARM using the
same algorithm as x86. We use the fls macro from ARMv5 onwards, where
we have a clz instruction available which saves us a mov instruction
when targetting Thumb-2. For older CPUs, we use the magic 0x0ff0001
constant. Big-endian configurations make use of the implementation from
asm-generic.

With this implemented, we can replace our byte-at-a-time strnlen_user
and strncpy_from_user functions with the optimised generic versions.

ARM: dcache: select DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS for little-endian ARMv6+ CPUs

DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS uses the word-at-a-time API for optimised string
comparisons in the vfs layer.

This patch implements support for load_unaligned_zeropad for ARM CPUs
with native support for unaligned memory accesses (v6+) when running
little-endian.

writeback: Fix occasional slow sync(1)

In case when system contains no dirty pages, wakeup_flusher_threads()
will submit WB_SYNC_NONE writeback for 0 pages so wb_writeback() exits
immediately without doing anything. Thus sync(1) will write all the
dirty inodes from a WB_SYNC_ALL writeback pass which is slow.

Fix the problem by using get_nr_dirty_pages() in
wakeup_flusher_threads() instead of calculating number of dirty pages
manually. That function also takes number of dirty inodes into account.

ARM: 7626/1: arm/crypto: Make asm SHA-1 and AES code Thumb-2 compatible

This patch fixes aes-armv4.S and sha1-armv4-large.S to work
natively in Thumb.  This allows ARM/Thumb interworking workarounds
to be removed.

I also take the opportunity to convert some explicit assembler
directives for exported functions to the standard
ENTRY()/ENDPROC().

For the code itself:

  * In sha1_block_data_order, use of TEQ with sp is deprecated in
    ARMv7 and not supported in Thumb.  For the branches back to
    .L_00_15 and .L_40_59, the TEQ is converted to a CMP, under the
    assumption that clobbering the C flag here will not cause
    incorrect behaviour.

    For the first branch back to .L_20_39_or_60_79 the C flag is
    important, so sp is moved temporarily into another register so
    that TEQ can be used for the comparison.

  * In the AES code, most forms of register-indexed addressing with
    shifts and rotates are not permitted for loads and stores in
    Thumb, so the address calculation is done using a separate
    instruction for the Thumb case.

The resulting code is unlikely to be optimally scheduled, but it
should not have a large impact given the overall size of the code.
I haven't run any benchmarks.

[PATCH 2/3] Optimize copy_page for modern ARM platforms

The existing implementation of copy_page for ARM appears to be
optimized for older platforms. Benchmark testing in a sandbox
environment shows suboptimal performance on modern platforms
like armv6 and armv7, with speed-ups ranging from 10% (Cortex A8)
to 80% (armv6 used in Raspberry Pi) being achievable.

This commit optimizes copy_page and introduces the new compile-time
constant PREFETCH_DISTANCE, defined in cache.h, which when
multiplied by L1_CACHE_BYTES is equal to the offset used for
prefetches performed with the PLD instruction. For platforms where
L1_CACHE_BYTES is 32 (armv5 and armv6), copy_page processes 32 bytes
at a time while doing one prefetch per iteration, while for armv7
(with L1_CACHE_BYTES equal to 64), 64 bytes are processed at at time
with one prefetch per iteration. When no preload instruction is
available (platforms earlier than armv5), no preload instructions
are generated and 32 bytes are processed at at time.

To facilitate specifying instructions for architectures with no
preload instruction, the NO_PLD macro is added to assembler.h,
augmenting the PLD macro.
