It seems benchmark figures are unchanged from the first iteration of this
patch, did the revision not affect them?

This is technically inaccurate (whether plain 'char' is signed depends on the
target), so if you're revising this further I'd suggest to change this too to
e.g. 'str'.

I think it would be nice to retain this loop as a comment to indicate what this
function is supposed to implement.

Surprised to see an explicit cast where plain assignment with implicit type
conversion is doing the obvious thing. Is it really necessary?

I had trouble understanding this comment. I'd suggest dropping it or rephrasing
like 'Since hashed string is normally not empty, this is unlikely on the first
iteration of the loop'.

Braces look unnecessary.

Again unnecessary explicit cast here (c1 = s[1] might be easier to read).
Alternatively, you could use 'c1 = *s++' here and above and drop explicit
s += 2 below, I expect resulting assembly to be the same.

The main concern here is preventing reassociation from 'h = h*32 + (c0 + h)'
to 'h = (h*32 + h) + c0', not scheduling. We're using an empty asm to break
up a sequence of additions.
Also note that this leads to a return, so only saves a couple cycles once per
call, not inside the loop.

Wrong indentation here.

As above, we are placing empty asms mainly as reassociation barriers.
