// int	  bcmp(const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t len);
//
// Bcmp returns (+,0,-), whereas memcmp returns the true difference
// between the first differing bytes, but we treat them identically.
//
// We optimize the compare by doing it word parallel.  This introduces
// a complication: if we blindly did word loads from both sides until
// finding a difference, we might get a spurious page fault by
// reading bytes past the difference.  To avoid this, we never do a "lwz"
// that crosses a page boundary.
//
// In 64-bit mode, this routine is doubleword parallel.
