And s390* could also provide cmpstrsi pattern, which would check if length
is ~(size_t)0, bail otherwise.
ATM expand_builtin_strcmp only uses cmpstrM patterns if one argument
is a string literal, but I don't see why it couldn't use it even if
there is no string literal and the length is unknown (ie. worst ~(size_t)0).
