	 * Large (>= 16 bytes) copying is done in a fancy way.  Latency isn't
	 * an overriding concern here, but throughput is.  We first do
	 * sub-word copying until the destination is aligned, then we check
	 * if the source is also aligned.  If so, we do a simple load/store-loop
	 * until there are less than 8 bytes left over and then we do the tail,
	 * by storing the last few bytes using sub-word copying.  If the source
	 * is not aligned, we branch off to the non-congruent loop.

	 *         0  ld
	 *	   :
	 * MEM_LAT+3  shrp

	 *
	 * On Itanium, the pipeline itself runs without stalls.  However,  br.ctop
	 * seems to introduce an unavoidable bubble in the pipeline so the overall
	 * latency is 2 cycles/iteration.  This gives us a _copy_ throughput
	 * of 4 byte/cycle.  Still not bad.
