It looks like this is really doing two things at once: disabling the
direct emission of LDP/STP Qs, and switching the GPR handling from using
pairs of DImode moves to single TImode moves.  At least, that seems to be
the effect of...

...changing this limit from 8 to 16 for non-SIMD copies.

Is that deliberate?  If so, please mention that kind of thing in the
covering note.  It sounded like this was intended to change the handling
of vector moves only.

This means that, for GPRs, we are now effectively using the double-word
move patterns to get an LDP/STP indirectly, rather than directly as before.
That seems OK, and I suppose might be slightly preferable to the current
code for things like:

  char a[31], b[31];
  void f() { __builtin_memcpy(a, b, 31); }

Compiled with -O2 -mgeneral-regs-only, the patch gives:

        adrp    x0, .LANCHOR0
        add     x0, x0, :lo12:.LANCHOR0
        add     x2, x0, 47
        add     x1, x0, 15
        ldp     x4, x5, [x0, 32]
        stp     x4, x5, [x0]
        ldp     x2, x3, [x2]
        stp     x2, x3, [x1]

rather than GCC 13's:

        adrp    x0, .LANCHOR0
        add     x0, x0, :lo12:.LANCHOR0
        ldp     x2, x3, [x0, 32]
        stp     x2, x3, [x0]
        ldr     x2, [x0, 48]
        str     x2, [x0, 16]
        ldr     x1, [x0, 55]
        str     x1, [x0, 23]
        ret

But that raises the question: should we do the same thing for Q registers
and V2x16QImode?

We currently use LD1/ST1 in preference to LDP/STP for little-endian
movv2x16qi (but do use LDP/STP for big-endian).  But if that's not
desirable here then it probably isn't desirable elsewhere either.

If emitting individual vector loads and stores is better than using
V2x16QI (and I can see that it might be), then why isn't the same
true for GPRs and DImode vs TImode?

I think the final version of this patch should go in ahead of the
clean-up patch.  As I mentioned in the other review, I think the
clean-up should wait for GCC 15.

Thanks,
Richard
