commit 6dcbb7d95dded20153b12d76d2f4e0ef0cda4f35
Author: Noah Goldstein <goldstein.w.n@gmail.com>

    x86: Shrink code size of memchr-avx2.S
    
    This is not meant as a performance optimization. The previous code was
    far to liberal in aligning targets and wasted code size unnecissarily.
    
    The total code size saving is: 59 bytes
    
    There are no major changes in the benchmarks.
    Geometric Mean of all benchmarks New / Old: 0.967
    
    Full xcheck passes on x86_64.
