Whoops.  As you can imagine there's some amount of cut and paste here.  ;-)

Yes, this works.  And a good idea for improvement.

Ah, I'd mis-read the document the first time round and thought uqadd8 was an
armv6t2 instruction.  I'll rearrange all these so that armv6 can benefit.

Which makes patch 3 once again useful... ;-)
