Subject: powerpc/32: Fix csum_partial_copy_generic()

From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr>

commit 1bc8b816cb8058c31f61fe78442f10a43209e582 upstream.

Commit 7aef4136566b0 ("powerpc32: rewrite csum_partial_copy_generic()
based on copy_tofrom_user()") introduced a bug when destination
address is odd and initial csum is not null

In that (rare) case the initial csum value has to be rotated one byte
as well as the resulting value is

This patch also fixes related comments
