Whoa, indeed.

Using attached patch that reloads memory address instead of going
through XMM register, the code for the testcase improves from:

test:
.LFB0:
	.cfi_startproc
	pushq	%rbx
	.cfi_def_cfa_offset 16
	.cfi_offset 3, -16
	sall	$4, %esi
	addl	%edi, %esi
	movdqa	(%esi), %xmm0
	movdqa	%xmm0, -16(%rsp)
	movq	-16(%rsp), %rcx
	movq	-8(%rsp), %rbx
	addq	$1, %rcx
	adcq	$0, %rbx
	movq	%rcx, -16(%rsp)
	sall	$4, %edx
	movq	%rbx, -8(%rsp)
	movdqa	-16(%rsp), %xmm0
	movdqa	%xmm0, (%esi)
	pxor	%xmm0, %xmm0
	movdqa	%xmm0, (%edx,%esi)
	popq	%rbx
	.cfi_def_cfa_offset 8
	ret

to:

test:
.LFB0:
	.cfi_startproc
	sall	$4, %esi
	pushq	%rbx
	.cfi_def_cfa_offset 16
	.cfi_offset 3, -16
	addl	%edi, %esi
	pxor	%xmm0, %xmm0
	mov	%esi, %eax
	movq	(%rax), %rcx
	movq	8(%rax), %rbx
	addq	$1, %rcx
	adcq	$0, %rbx
	sall	$4, %edx
	movq	%rcx, (%rax)
	movq	%rbx, 8(%rax)
	movdqa	%xmm0, (%edx,%esi)
	popq	%rbx
	.cfi_def_cfa_offset 8
	ret

H.J., can you please test attached patch? This optimization won't
trigger on x86_64 anymore.

Thanks,
Uros.
