x86, core: Optimize hweight32()

Optimize hweight32 by using the same technique in hweight64.

The proof of this technique can be found in the commit log for
f9b4192923fa6e38331e88214b1fe5fc21583fcc ("bitops: hweight()
speedup").

The userspace benchmark on x86_32 showed 20% speedup with
bitmap_weight() which uses hweight32 to count bits for each
unsigned long on 32bit architectures.

 int main(void)
 {
	#define SZ (1024 * 1024 * 512)

	static DECLARE_BITMAP(bitmap, SZ) = {
	        [0 ... 100] = 1,
	};

	return bitmap_weight(bitmap, SZ);
 }
