commit 52928ce8adc3fc297695ee4e366fa05081d1bc03
Author: Michael Meissner <meissner@linux.ibm.com>

    Disable generating load/store vector pairs for block copies.
    
    Testing has found that using store vector pair for block copies can result
    in a slow down on power10.  This patch disables using the vector pair
    instructions for block copies if we are tuning for power10.

    gcc/
            * config/rs6000/rs6000.cc (rs6000_option_override_internal): Do
            not generate block copies with vector pair instructions if we are
            tuning for power10.
