lib/sort: Add 64 bit swap function

lib/sort: Add 64 bit swap function

In case the call side is not providing a swap function, we either use a
32 bit or a generic swap function.  When swapping around pointers on 64
bit architectures falling back to use the generic swap function seems
like an unnecessary waste.

There at least 9 users ('sort' is of difficult to grep for) of sort()
and all of them use the sort function without a customized swap
function.  Furthermore, they are all using pointers to swap around:

arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:sanitize_e820_map()
arch/x86/mm/extable.c:sort_extable()
drivers/acpi/fan.c:acpi_fan_get_fps()
fs/btrfs/super.c:btrfs_descending_sort_devices()
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_dir2_block.c:xfs_dir2_sf_to_block()
kernel/range.c:clean_sort_range()
mm/memcontrol.c:__mem_cgroup_usage_register_event()
sound/pci/hda/hda_auto_parser.c:snd_hda_parse_pin_defcfg()
sound/pci/hda/hda_auto_parser.c:sort_pins_by_sequence()

Obviously, we could improve the swap for other sizes as well
but this is overkill at this point.

A simple test shows sorting a 400 element array (try to stay in one
page) with either with u32_swap() or u64_swap() show that the theory
actually works. This test was done on a x86_64 (Intel Xeon E5-4610)
machine.
