ARM: lib64: Make string functions aware of MMU configuration
Optimized version of memset() in memset.S if called as: memset(foo, 0, size) will try to explicitly zero out data cache with: dc zva, dst which will result in Alignement Exception (DABT) if MMU is not enabled. For more info see: - C4.4.8 "DC ZVA, Data Cache Zero by VA" - D5.2.8 "The effects of disabling a stage of address translation" in "ARM Architecture Reference Manual. ARMv8, for ARMv8-A architecture profile" In similar vein, using optimized version of memcpy() could lead to a unaligned 16-byte write (using 'stp'), which is not allowed for Device-nGnRnE type of memory (see D5.2.8) and would liead to Alignement Exception. To fix both problems expose non-optimized and optimzied versions of the function and created a wrapper to dispatch the call to either one based on if MMU is enabled or not.
