Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: new and improved memset()

Current memset() implementation does silly things:
* multiplication to get register-wide constant:
	waste of cycles if filler is known at compile time,

* REP STOSQ followed by REP STOSB:
	REP STOSB setup overhead is very high because trailing length
	is very low (< 8)

* suboptimal calling convention:
	REP STOSB/STOSQ favours (rdi, rcx), ABI gives (rdi, rsi, rdx).
	While shuffling registers is free, rcx and rdx are equivalent
	code generation wise.

* memset_orig():
	memset(..., 0, ...) could be done within 3 registers,
	memset(..., != 0, ...) -- within 4 registers, anything else is
	a waste. CPUs which required unrolling are hopefully gone by now.

New implementation is based on the following observations:
* c == 0 is the most common form,
	filler can be done with "xor eax, eax" and pushed into memset()
	saving 2 bytes per call and multiplication

* "len" divisible by 8 is the most common form:
	all it takes is one pointer or unsigned long inside structure,
	dispatch at compile time to code without those ugly "lets fill
	at most 7 bytes" tails,

* multiplication to get wider filler value can be done at compile time
  for "c != 0" with 1 insn/10 bytes at most saving multiplication.

Note: "memset0" name is chosen because "bzero" is officially deprecated.

Note: memset(,0,) form is interleaved into memset(,c,) form to save space.

TODO:
	CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE is enabled by distros
	inline "xor eax, eax; rep stosb"
	benchmarks
	testing
