I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

Recent commit 59ba2d2b54 missed to add __memrchr_power8 in
ifunc list. Also handled discarding unwanted bytes for
unaligned inputs in power8 optimization.

* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/memrchr-ppc64.c: Revert
back to powerpc32 file.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/memrchr.c
(memrchr): Add __memrchr_power8 to ifunc list.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power8/memrchr.S: Mask
extra bytes for unaligned inputs.
Vectorized loops are used for sizes greater than 32B to improve
performance over power7 optimization. This shows as an average
of 25% improvement depending on the position of search
character. The performance is same for shorter strings.
