    runtime: use hardware divider to improve performance · 69261eca
    Ben Shi authored
    The hardware divider is an optional component of ARMv7. This patch
    detects whether it is available in runtime and use it or not.
    
    1. The hardware divider is detected at startup and a flag is set/clear
       according to a perticular bit of runtime.hwcap.
    2. Each call of runtime.udiv will check this flag and decide if
       use the hardware division instruction.
    
    A rough test shows the performance improves 40-50% for ARMv7. And
    the compatibility of ARMv5/v6 is not broken.
    
    fixes #19118
