preprocessed arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.c

The RAID code in the Linux kernel is written in a way that should let the
compiler autovectorize it with good results. When compiling the kernel with
clang-8, this does not happen, only scalar code is emitted.

I have reproduced this with the attached file, also for comparison the same
file at https://godbolt.org/z/7bMthX, which shows the difference between the
gcc and the clang output.
