arm64/lib: copy_page: use consistent prefetch stride
The optional prefetch instructions in the copy_page() routine are inconsistent: at the start of the function, two cachelines are prefetched beyond the one being loaded in the first iteration, but in the loop, the prefetch is one more line ahead. This appears to be unintentional, so let's fix it. While at it, fix the comment style and white space.
