[AArch64] Adjust writeback in non-zero memset
This fixes an ineffiency in the non-zero memset.  Delaying the writeback
until the end of the loop is slightly faster on some cores - this shows
~5% performance gain on Cortex-A53 when doing large non-zero memsets.

	* sysdeps/aarch64/memset.S (MEMSET): Improve non-zero memset loop.
