Subject: [PATCH 28/63] [release-branch.go1.5] runtime: adjust the ppc64x
 memmove and memclr to copy by word as much as it can
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Issue #12552 can happen on ppc64 too, although much less frequently in my
testing. I'm fairly sure this fixes it (2 out of 200 runs of oracle.test failed
without this change and 0 of 200 failed with it). It's also a lot faster for
large moves/clears:
