Looking at some instruction timings ror32() and bswap32()
seem to need one of the same execution ports.
However on Intel cpus bswap64() takes 2 clocks but the ror64()
instructions only take 1.
AMD cpus are more symmetric and run all variant in 1 clock.
So ror32() is probably preferable in case anyone copies the
code into somewhere with 64bit checksum value.
