        * builtins.c (expand_builtin_memcmp): Do not use cmpstrnsi pattern.
        * doc/md.texi (cmpstrn): Note that the comparison stops if both
        fetched bytes are zero.
        (cmpstr): Likewise.
        (cmpmem): Note that the comparison does not stop if both of the
        fetched bytes are zero.

we no longer expand memcmp inline as x86 does not have a cmpmemsi pattern.

Testcase:

int foo(char *s, char *q)
{
  return memcmp (s, q, 4);
}

the 1-size case is folded to *s == *q.

This is now a regression, we have to do _something_ about it for 4.7,
at least for constant small sizes.
