[PATCH v2 3/5] xor/arm: Replace vectorized implementation with arm64's intrinsics

Tue Mar 31 00:49:43 PDT 2026


From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>

Drop the XOR implementation generated by the vectorizer: this has always
been a bit of a hack, and now that arm64 has an intrinsics version that
works on ARM too, let's use that instead.

So copy the part of the arm64 code that can be shared (so not the EOR3
version). The arm64 code will be updated in a subsequent patch to share
this implementation.
