[PATCH][PPC64] Better memset

[PATCH][PPC64] Better memset

[Paul Mackerras]

Anton noticed in some traces that we were spending an awfully long
time doing a memset.  The ppc64 memset is basically unchanged from the
ppc32 version, and it only does 4-byte stores and doesn't unroll the
loop.  Here's a memset that performs a bit better.  I have been using
it for 3 weeks now, and Anton has tested it on a variety of machines,
without problems.  Please apply.
