Christophe Leroy f36bbf21e8 powerpc/lib: optimise 32 bits __clear_user() 
Rewrite clear_user() on the same principle as memset(0), making use
of dcbz to clear complete cache lines.

This code is a copy/paste of memset(), with some modifications
in order to retrieve remaining number of bytes to be cleared,
as it needs to be returned in case of error.

On the same way as done on PPC64 in commit 17968fbbd1
("powerpc: 64bit optimised __clear_user"), the patch moves
__clear_user() into a dedicated file string_32.S

On a MPC885, throughput is almost doubled:

Before:
~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000
1048576000 bytes (1000.0MB) copied, 18.990779 seconds, 52.7MB/s

After:
~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000
1048576000 bytes (1000.0MB) copied, 9.611468 seconds, 104.0MB/s

On a MPC8321, throughput is multiplied by 2.12:

Before:
root@vgoippro:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000
1048576000 bytes (1000.0MB) copied, 6.844352 seconds, 146.1MB/s

After:
root@vgoippro:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000
1048576000 bytes (1000.0MB) copied, 3.218854 seconds, 310.7MB/s

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
