x86-64: Avoid rep movsb with short distance [BZ #27130]
When copying with "rep movsb", if the distance between source and destination is N*4GB + [1..63] with N >= 0, performance may be very slow. This patch updates memmove-vec-unaligned-erms.S for AVX and AVX512 versions with the distance in RCX: cmpl $63, %ecx // Don't use "rep movsb" if ECX <= 63 jbe L(Don't use rep movsb") Use "rep movsb" Benchtests data with bench-memcpy, bench-memcpy-large, bench-memcpy-random and bench-memcpy-walk on Skylake, Ice Lake and Tiger Lake show that its performance impact is within noise range as "rep movsb" is only used for data size >= 4KB.
