Hi!

This is a precondition of the __builtin_assume_aligned patch (otherwise
it wouldn't be useful for vectorization for which it has been designed),
but I've bootstrapped/regtested it on x86_64-linux and i686-linux
separately.  

get_pointer_alignment can tell us that a pointer is already sufficiently
aligned and we don't need to use misaligned loads/stores.  It should be
useful even in other cases, such as when the code contains explicit
ptr = (double *) (((uintptr_t) ptr) & ~(uintptr_t) 15);
and similar to guarantee that ptr is already 16 byte aligned, etc.

I haven't played with doing something additionally just with
SSA_NAME_PTR_INFO (base_addr)->misalign yet if it isn't sufficiently aligned,
but ->align is big enough, for integer_zerop (misalign) I guess we could
just set misalign to that, otherwise?  Also, I think we can't leave out the
TYPE_ALIGN_UNIT test, because get_pointer_alignment will often return
just BITS_PER_UNIT, e.g. for PARM_DECLs, even if they are pointers
to sufficiently aligned types.

Ok for trunk?

	* tree-vect-data-refs.c (vect_compute_data_ref_alignment): Use
	get_pointer_alignment to see if base isn't sufficiently aligned.

Looks good to me.  To make use of misalign info we have to fold it into
that of DR_OFFSET/INIT though.  I eventually wanted to make
get_pointer_alignment to also return misalign info
(like get_object_alignment_1 does).

Thanks,
Richard.
