[RFC PATCH 1/2] ARM: use generic strnlen_user and strncpy_from_user functions

Fri Jun 8 11:38:54 EDT 2012
This patch implements the word-at-a-time interface for ARM using the
same algorithm as x86. Although we have a clz instruction from ARMv5,
this only saves us one mov instruction when building with Thumb-2 and
makes no difference when targetting ARM, so we use the magic 0x0ff0001
constant for all CPUs. For big-endian configurations, we use the
implementation from asm-generic.
With this implemented, we can replace our byte-at-a-time strnlen_user
and strncpy_from_user functions with the optimised generic versions.
