Subject: powerpc/32: Fix again csum_partial_copy_generic()

From: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]>

commit 8540571e01f973d321b0821f4f32ed6e9ae8263c upstream.

Commit 7aef4136566b0 ("powerpc32: rewrite csum_partial_copy_generic() based on copy_tofrom_user()") introduced a bug when destination address is odd and len is lower than cacheline size.

In that case the resulting csum value doesn't have to be rotated one byte because the cache-aligned copy part is skipped so no alignment is performed.
