Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

+ * arch/alpha/lib/ev6-clear_user.S
+ * 21264 version contributed by Rick Gorton <rick.gorton@alpha-processor.com>
+ *
+ * Zero user space, handling exceptions as we go.
+ *
+ * We have to make sure that $0 is always up-to-date and contains the
+ * right "bytes left to zero" value (and that it is updated only _after_
+ * a successful copy). There is also some rather minor exception setup
+ * stuff.
+ *
+ * NOTE! This is not directly C-callable, because the calling semantics
+ * are different:
+ *
+ * Inputs:
+ * length in $0
+ * destination address in $6
+ * exception pointer in $7
+ * return address in $28 (exceptions expect it there)
+ *
+ * Outputs:
+ * bytes left to copy in $0
+ *
+ * Clobbers:
+ * $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6
+ *
+ * Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
+ * Compiler Writer's Guide for the Alpha 21264
+ * abbreviated as 'CWG' in other comments here
+ * ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/dsc-library.html
+ * Scheduling notation:
+ * E - either cluster
+ * U - upper subcluster; U0 - subcluster U0; U1 - subcluster U1
+ * L - lower subcluster; L0 - subcluster L0; L1 - subcluster L1
+ * Try not to change the actual algorithm if possible for consistency.
+ * Determining actual stalls (other than slotting) doesn't appear to be easy to do.
+ * From perusing the source code context where this routine is called, it is
+ * a fair assumption that significant fractions of entire pages are zeroed, so
+ * it's going to be worth the effort to hand-unroll a big loop, and use wh64.
+ * ASSUMPTION:
+ * The believed purpose of only updating $0 after a store is that a signal
+ * may come along during the execution of this chunk of code, and we don't
+ * want to leave a hole (and we also want to avoid repeating lots of work)
