commit 9a421348cd7d0704663e26e6171828bed6e0a2cf

    elf: Optimize _dl_new_hash in dl-new-hash.h
    
    Unroll slightly and enforce good instruction scheduling. This improves
    performance on out-of-order machines. The unrolling allows for
    pipelined multiplies.
    
    As well, as an optional sysdep, reorder the operations and prevent
    reassosiation for better scheduling and higher ILP. This commit
    only adds the barrier for x86, although it should be either no
    change or a win for any architecture.
    
    Unrolling further started to induce slowdowns for sizes [0, 4]
    but can help the loop so if larger sizes are the target further
    unrolling can be beneficial.

+   We can get better performance by slightly unrolling the loop to

+
+   As well, as an architecture specific option we add asm statements
+   to explicitly specify order of operations and prevent reassociation
+   of instructions that lengthens the loop carried dependency. This
+   may have no affect as the compiler may have ordered instructions
+   the same way without it but in testing this has not been the case
+   for GCC. Improving GCC to reliably schedule instructions ideally
+   cannot be easily done.
+
+   Architecture(s) that use the reassociation barriers are:
+   x86
+
+   Note it is very unlikely the reassociation barriers would
+   de-optimize performance on any architecture and with an imperfect
+   compiler it may help performance, especially on out-of-order cpus,
+   so it is suggested that the respective maintainers add them.
+
+   Architecture maintainers are encouraged to benchmark this with
+   __asm_reassociation_barrier defined to __asm__ like it is in x86.
