The P/Q left side optimization in the delta syndrome simply involves repeatedly multiplying a value by polynomial 'x' in GF(2^8). Given that 'x * x * x * x' equals 'x^4' even in the polynomial world, we can accelerate this substantially by performing up to 4 such operations at once, using the NEON instructions for polynomial multiplication. Results on a Cortex-A57 running in 64-bit mode: Before: ------- raid6: neonx1 xor() 1680 MB/s raid6: neonx2 xor() 2286 MB/s raid6: neonx4 xor() 3162 MB/s raid6: neonx8 xor() 3389 MB/s After: ------ raid6: neonx1 xor() 2281 MB/s raid6: neonx2 xor() 3362 MB/s raid6: neonx4 xor() 3787 MB/s raid6: neonx8 xor() 4239 MB/s While we're at it, simplify MASK() by using a signed shift rather than a vector compare involving a temp register.
