[PATCH] Restrict LOOP_ALIGN to loop headers only.

Hi.

I'm suggesting to restrict LOOP_ALIGN to only loop headers. That are the
basic blocks for which it makes the biggest sense. I quite some binary
size reductions on SPEC2006 and SPEC2017. Speed numbers are also slightly
positive.

Patch can bootstrap on x86_64-linux-gnu and survives regression tests.

Ready to be installed?
Thanks,
Martin

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* final.c (compute_alignments): Apply the LOOP_ALIGN only
	to basic blocks that all loop headers.
