/* Fill a block of memory with a character.  Optimized for the Alpha
   architecture:

   - memory accessed as aligned quadwords only
   - destination memory not read unless needed for good cache behaviour
   - basic blocks arranged to optimize branch prediction for full-quadword
     aligned memory blocks.
   - partial head and tail quadwords constructed with byte-mask instructions

   This is generally scheduled for the EV5 (got to look out for my own
   interests :-), but with EV4 needs in mind.  There *should* be no more
   stalls for the EV4 than there are for the EV5.
