35  * Portable strlen() for 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
36  *
37  * Rationale: it is generally much more efficient to do word length
38  * operations and avoid branches on modern computer systems, as
39  * compared to byte-length operations with a lot of branches.
40  *
41  * The expression:
42  *
43  *	((x - 0x01....01) & ~x & 0x80....80)
44  *
45  * would evaluate to a non-zero value iff any of the bytes in the
46  * original word is zero.
47  *
48  * On multi-issue processors, we can divide the above expression into:
49  *	a)  (x - 0x01....01)
50  *	b) (~x & 0x80....80)
51  *	c) a & b
52  *
53  * Where, a) and b) can be partially computed in parallel.
54  *
55  * The algorithm above is found on "Hacker's Delight" by
56  * Henry S. Warren, Jr.
