You are right. For historical reasons, I can't find which product each cpu name 
string points to actually. From the old feature list in X86TargetParser.def, 
these three cpu names even share a same feature list:

  atom_sse4_2
  core_i7_sse4_2
  core_aes_pclmulqdq

"core_5th_gen_avx_tsx"  is also same as "broadwell". So I have a new proposal 
for RULE3, which can be considered to be more conservative:

  pentium_4_sse3 -> prescott (FeatureSSE3)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_1 like prescott
  core_2_duo_ssse3 -> core2 (FeatureSSSE3)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_1 like core2
  core_2_duo_sse4_1 -> penryn (FeatureSSE4_1)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_1 like penryn
  atom_sse4_2 -> nehalem (FeatureSSE4_2)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_2 like nehalem
  core_i7_sse4_2 -> nehalem (FeatureSSE4_2)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_2 like nehalem
  core_aes_pclmulqdq -> nehalem (FeatureSSE4_2)
      First introduce FeatureSSE4_2 like nehalem
  core_5th_gen_avx_tsx -> broadwell 
      Same feature list as broadwell

Meanwhile, the fact above won't affect code changes in X86.td. I'll still 
define these new cpu names with the TUNE_NAME info in original source.
