I think we can add a small optimization to this last patch [1].
The variable *aligned_end* is only needed in the second loop (for).
So, only before the for loop do we actually declare it.

Result before this change:
check zeros using BERTRAND 1 0.000031s

Result after this change:
check zeros using BERTRAND 1 0.000018s

+ const unsigned char *aligned_end;

+ /* Multiple bytes comparison(s) at once */
+ aligned_end = (const unsigned char *) ((uintptr_t) end &
(~(sizeof(size_t) - 1)));
+ for (; p < aligned_end; p += sizeof(size_t))
