//
// Theory of operations:
//	The goal is to go as quickly as possible to the point where
//	we can checksum 16 bytes/loop. Before reaching that point we must
//	take care of incorrect alignment of first byte.
//
//	The code hereafter also takes care of the "tail" part of the buffer
//	before entering the core loop, if any. The checksum is a sum so it
//	allows us to commute operations. So we do the "head" and "tail"
//	first to finish at full speed in the body. Once we get the head and
//	tail values, we feed them into the pipeline, very handy initialization.
//
//	Of course we deal with the special case where the whole buffer fits
//	into one 8 byte word. In this case we have only one entry in the pipeline.
//
//	We use a (LOAD_LATENCY+2)-stage pipeline in the loop to account for
//	possible load latency and also to accommodate for head and tail.
//
//	The end of the function deals with folding the checksum from 64bits
//	down to 16bits taking care of the carry.
//
//	This version avoids synchronization in the core loop by also using a
//	pipeline for the accumulation of the checksum in resultx[] (x=1,2).
//
//	 wordx[] (x=1,2)
//	|---|
//      |   | 0			: new value loaded in pipeline
//	|---|
//      |   | -			: in transit data
//	|---|
//      |   | LOAD_LATENCY	: current value to add to checksum
//	|---|
//      |   | LOAD_LATENCY+1	: previous value added to checksum
//      |---|			(previous iteration)
//
//	resultx[] (x=1,2)
//	|---|
//      |   | 0			: initial value
//	|---|
//      |   | LOAD_LATENCY-1	: new checksum
//	|---|
//      |   | LOAD_LATENCY	: previous value of checksum
//	|---|
//      |   | LOAD_LATENCY+1	: final checksum when out of the loop
//      |---|
//
//
//	See RFC1071 "Computing the Internet Checksum" for various techniques for
//	calculating the Internet checksum.
//
// NOT YET DONE:
//	- Maybe another algorithm which would take care of the folding at the
//	  end in a different manner
//	- Work with people more knowledgeable than me on the network stack
//	  to figure out if we could not split the function depending on the
//	  type of packet or alignment we get. Like the ip_fast_csum() routine
//	  where we know we have at least 20bytes worth of data to checksum.
//	- Do a better job of handling small packets.
//	- Note on prefetching: it was found that under various load, i.e. ftp read/write,
//	  nfs read/write, the L1 cache hit rate is at 60% and L2 cache hit rate is at 99.8%
//	  on the data that buffer points to (partly because the checksum is often preceded by
//	  a copy_from_user()).  This finding indiate that lfetch will not be beneficial since
//	  the data is already in the cache.
