Apparently there exist certain workloads which rely heavily on software
checksumming, for which the generic do_csum() implementation becomes a
significant bottleneck. Therefore let's give arm64 its own optimised
version - for ease of maintenance this foregoes assembly or intrisics,
and is thus not actually arm64-specific, but does rely heavily on C
idioms that translate well to the A64 ISA and the typical load/store
capabilities of most ARMv8 CPU cores.
The resulting increase in checksum throughput scales nicely with buffer
size, tending towards 4x for a small in-order core (Cortex-A53), and up
to 6x or more for an aggressive big core (Ampere eMAG).
