commit 219e882f9d4726574375af9c0b86e412652bd3c1
Author: Michael Meissner <meissner@linux.ibm.com>

    Do not enable -mblock-ops-vector-pair.
    
    Testing has shown that using the load vector pair and store vector pair
    instructions for block moves has some performance issues on power10.
    
    A patch on June 11th modified the code so that GCC would not set
    -mblock-ops-vector-pair by default if we are tuning for power10, but it
    would set the option if we were tuning for a different machine and have
    load and store vector pair instructions enabled.
    
    This patch eliminates the code setting -mblock-ops-vector-pair.  If you
    want to generate load vector pair and store vector pair instructions for
    block moves, you must use -mblock-ops-vector-pair.

            * config/rs6000/rs6000.cc (rs6000_option_override_internal): Remove
            code setting -mblock-ops-vector-pair.
