[PATCH 2/2] x86_64/memset: avoid prforming final store twice

[Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>]

The code does a potentially misaligned 8-byte store to fill the tail
of the buffer. Then it fills the initial part of the buffer
which is a multiple of 8 bytes.
Therefore, if size is divisible by 8, we were storing last word twice.

This patch decrements byte count before dividing it by 8,
making one less store in "size is divisible by 8" case,
and not changing anything in all other cases.
All at the cost of replacing one MOV insn with LEA insn.
