For some reason I don't have 2/3 and 3/3 in my mbox (though I do have
them on patchwork) so I'll reply to this one.

Overall, your statement that this is a faster path needs to be backed up
with numbers.

The code is complicated enough as it-is, such additional mess in the low
level hashing code requires a good justification, and also a
demonstration that it doesn't add overhead to the normal hash path.

Cheers,
Ben.
