Subject[PATCH 8/9] x86/lib/memmove_64.S: Optimize memmove by enhanced REP MOVSB/STOSB
Date
From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>

Support memmove() by enhanced rep movsb. On processors supporting enhanced
REP MOVSB/STOSB, the alternative memmove() function using enhanced rep movsb
overrides the original function.

The patch doesn't change backward memmove case with enhanced rep movsb.
