The function 'block' called indirectly via function literal 'blockGeneric' prevents
'gc' performing an accurate escape analysis to its arguments, that will result in
unnecessary heap object allocation and GC cost.
Consistent performance improvement to sha512 and its dependency packages are
observed on various arm64 servers if eliminating the function literal, especially for
small-sized benchmarks.
