The introduction of BSD-licensed code to compiler-rt (and especially to 
compiler-rt's builtins library) poses significant licensing difficulty.

The BSD 2-clause license requires attribution when code is distributed in 
object form as well as source form, and since the compiler-rt builtins are 
linked into binaries _built with_ LLVM (not just LLVM itself), the impact of 
the license here would be transitive to products built using LLVM-based 
compilers.

This is extremely undesirable, and as such this change will need to replace the 
xxhash with an alternative hash (ideally under the LLVM license) in order to be 
integrated.
