hi,

for those of you that build your own kernels and have a lot of inet stuff
going on I've made a arm32 version of this.  It's based on the sparc
version (in fact it's identical but for the asm parts)

If people who've got machines using inet a lot could test it out see if it
is faster, and let me know if it works.

Also available are new versions of htonl.S and ntohl.S these are shorter
(4 insts).  These replace the ones from the patch sets.

Please read the readme file for instructions on setting up the in_cksum
properly (the improper way is to just copy it over sys/netinet/in_cksum.c)
