There's also the WinX86_64 counterpart, which I'm even less confident about.
I am pretty skeptical of even the original code here, frankly.  Are clients 
really making stronger promises just because they're compiling with AVX 
enabled?  Note that the compiler doesn't *do* anything to achieve this; it 
literally just makes a more aggressive assumption about what the user has done.

It seems to me like the (1) the OpenMP people ought to review this and 
seriously consider it and (2) this number needs to be available to code in some 
portable manner, probably via a predefined macro.  Which means it probably 
ought to be defined in the AST-level TargetInfo.  CC'ing Alexey Bataev.
John, here is an excerpt from the OpenMP "If no optional parameter is 
specified, implementation-defined default
alignments for SIMD instructions on the target platforms are assumed." So, the 
value can be chosen by the compiler. But I think it is a good idea to have a macro 
for this.
Okay.  Would you mind making sure that happens?  In the meantime, I think we 
should bump the alignment up to 64 here when AVX512 is enabled.
