7bc13fd33a arm64: dcache: select DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS for little-endian CPUs
DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS uses the word-at-a-time API for optimised string
comparisons in the vfs layer.

This patch implements support for load_unaligned_zeropad in much the
same way as has been done for ARM, although big-endian systems are also
supported.

12a0ef7b0a arm64: use generic strnlen_user and strncpy_from_user functions
This patch implements the word-at-a-time interface for arm64 using the
same algorithm as ARM. We use the fls64 macro, which expands to a clz
instruction via a compiler builtin. Big-endian configurations make use
of 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.
