Yeah, this is sort-of related to what is observed in PR53355.  I suppose at
runtime nxtr is comparatively small.

Reduced testcase:

      subroutine cptrf2 (nxtr, ixtrt)
      integer, dimension (1:nxtr), intent (out) :: ixtrt
      ixtrt = 0
      end subroutine

we peel the loop to possibly align the stores, and we peel the loop
to possibly take care of a remaining store at the end of the array.
And of course we compute that we need at least 6 scalar iterations
to make executing the vectorized loop profitable.

And apart from all that we should have recognized the loop as memset.

Mine.
