Sample C code

Hi,

I'm compiling a very simple memset() implementation for AARCH64. See the
attached file.

clang is generating a couple of SIMD store instructions without checking if the
address is aligned. When run on a target (e.g. Hikey board) it crashes with an
alignment fault.

I tested both clang-3.8 that is available on Ubuntu 16.04 Server, as well as a
build of clang-4.0 from SVN.

$ /opt/llvm/bin/clang-4.0 --target=aarch64 -c -O2 LibC.c -o LibC.o -isystem
/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/include/
$ aarch64-linux-gnu-objdump -d -x LibC.o

  8c:   f100805f        cmp     x2, #0x20
  90:   540001e3        b.cc    cc <memset+0x44>
  94:   927be84a        and     x10, x2, #0xffffffffffffffe0
  98:   b40001aa        cbz     x10, cc <memset+0x44>
  9c:   8b0a0008        add     x8, x0, x10
  a0:   cb0a0049        sub     x9, x2, x10
  a4:   4e010c20        dup     v0.16b, w1
  a8:   9100400b        add     x11, x0, #0x10
  ac:   aa0a03ec        mov     x12, x10
  b0:   ad3f8160        stp     q0, q0, [x11,#-16]    <- x11 can be unaligned.
