* arch/alpha/lib/ev67-strlen.S
* 21264 version by Rick Gorton <rick.gorton@alpha-processor.com>
*
* Finds length of a 0-terminated string. Optimized for the
* Alpha architecture:
*
* - memory accessed as aligned quadwords only
* - uses bcmpge to compare 8 bytes in parallel
*
* Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
* Compiler Writer's Guide for the Alpha 21264
* abbreviated as 'CWG' in other comments here
* ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/dsc-library.html
* Scheduling notation:
* E - either cluster
* U - upper subcluster; U0 - subcluster U0; U1 - subcluster U1
* L - lower subcluster; L0 - subcluster L0; L1 - subcluster L1
