[Add Steve Ellcey, thanks for testing on ThunderX]

Lmbench-3.0-a9 testing is performed on ThunderX machine to check that
ILP32 series does not add performance regressions for LP64. Test
summary is in the table below. Our measurements doesn't show
significant performance regression of LP64 if ILP32 code is merged,
both enabled or disabled.

               ILP32 enabled   ILP32  disabled   Standard Kernel 
null syscall   0.1066          0.1121            0.1121
               95.09%          100.00%

stat           1.3947          1.3814            1.3864
               100.60%         99.64%

fstat          0.4459          0.4344            0.4524
               98.56%          96.02%

               100.38%         99.90%

read           0.4819          0.5014            0.5014
               96.11%          100.00%

Tested with linux 4.8 because 4.9-rc1 is not fixed yet for ThunderX.
Other system details below.
