I fear it might be too dangerous for -mavx512* for the branches; I went
through all the Yr uses on the trunk, but not on the branches.
Would you be ok with using 
"TARGET_SSE ? (TARGET_AVOID_4BYTE_PREFIXES ? NO_REX_SSE_REGS : SSE_REGS) : NO_REGS"
on the branches instead?
Or I guess we could use it on the trunk too, it should make no difference there
(because on the trunk it is only used when !TARGET_AVX).
Or maybe even
"TARGET_SSE ? ((TARGET_AVOID_4BYTE_PREFIXES && !TARGET_AVX) ? NO_REX_SSE_REGS : SSE_REGS) : NO_REGS"
(again, should make zero difference on the trunk, but might be better for
the branches).
