[PATCH 1/2] lib/hash: initialize __m128i data type in a portable way

[Andre Muezerie <andremue@linux.microsoft.com>]

The mechanism used to initialize an __m128i data type in rte_thash.h is
non-portable and MSVC does not like it. It clearly is not doing what
is desired:

..\lib\hash\rte_thash.h(38): warning C4305: 'initializing':
    truncation from 'unsigned __int64' to 'char'
..\lib\hash\rte_thash.h(38): warning C4305: 'initializing':
    truncation from 'unsigned __int64' to 'char'

A more portable approach is to use compiler intrinsics to perform the
initialization. This patch uses a single compiler intrinsic to
initialize the data type using a sequence of 16 bytes stored in
memory.

There should be no perf degradation due to this change.
