+Subject: [PATCH] strcmp: delete align for loop_aligned
+
+In Kunpeng-920, the performance of strcmp deteriorates only
+when the 16 to 23 characters are different.Or the string is
+only 16-23 characters.That shows 2 misses per iteration which
+means this is a branch predictor issue indeed.
+In the preceding scenario, strcmp performance is 300% worse than expected.
+
+Fortunately, this problem can be solved by modifying the alignment of the functions.
