Hi guys,
Was there any form of consensus over whether it was possible to get
some version of these ARM optimisations merged?

The current patch has the nice simplicity of working on essentially
every supported ARM platform, and therefore there is no special
handling needed to invoke alternative behaviour on some platforms.
However it is not as fast as it could be on ARMv5 and ARMv7 devices.

Regards,
Andre
