Thanks! This was committed to trunk last week as r247671. As we discussed
offline, I've also backported to GCC 7 (r248010) and GCC 6 (r248011).

Hi,
We recently became aware of some poor code generation as a result of
unprofitable (for POWER) loop vectorization. When a loop is simply copying
data with 64-bit loads and stores, vectorizing with 128-bit loads and stores
generally does not provide any benefit on modern POWER processors.
