2012-12-13	lib/raid6: Add AVX2 optimized recovery functions	Jim Kukunas	1	-0/+327
	Optimize RAID6 recovery functions to take advantage of the 256-bit YMM integer instructions introduced in AVX2. The patch was tested and benchmarked before submission. However hardware is not yet released so benchmark numbers cannot be reported. Acked-by: "H.
