Re: [PATCH] arm: Fix memchr() for Armv8-R

[Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn@redhat.com>]

Patch applied to master as there were was no objection from Richard, even
though he suggests the function
needs resyncing.  If someone wants to do the resync before end-of-year,
please get approval from Richard or
Arm team.
