Subject: [PATCH] Add more value barriers to avoid compiler induced side
 channels

The paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/2410.13489 claims that on specific
architectures Clang and GCC may introduce jumps here. The donna128
issues only affect 32-bit processors, which explains why we would not
see it in the x86-64 valgrind runs.

The GHASH leak would seem to be generic but the authors only observed
it on RISC-V.
