powerpc: optimise csum_partial() call when len is constant
csum_partial is often called for small fixed length packets
for which it is suboptimal to use the generic csum_partial()
function.
For instance, in my configuration, I got:
* One place calling it with constant len 4
* Seven places calling it with constant len 8
* Three places calling it with constant len 14
* One place calling it with constant len 20
* One place calling it with constant len 24
* One place calling it with constant len 32
This patch renames csum_partial() to __csum_partial() and
implements csum_partial() as a wrapper inline function which
* uses csum_add() for small 16bits multiple constant length
* uses ip_fast_csum() for other 32bits multiple constant
* uses __csum_partial() in all other cases
