/* These are carefully optimized mem*() functions for PPC written in C.
 * Don't muck around with these function without checking the generated
 * assmbler code.
 * It is possible to optimize these significantly more by using specific
 * data cache instructions(mainly dcbz). However that requires knownledge
 * about the CPU's cache line size.
 *
 * BUG ALERT!
 * The cache instructions on MPC8xx CPU's are buggy(they don't update
 * the DAR register when causing a DTLB Miss/Error) and cannot be
 * used on 8xx CPU's without a kernel patch to work around this
 * problem.
