tree-data-refs.h:
/* Alignment information. ALIGNED_TO is set to the largest power of two
that divides OFFSET. */
tree aligned_to;
tree-dat-refs.c:
DR_ALIGNED_TO (dr) = size_int (highest_pow2_factor (offset_iv.base));

But we need TYPE_ALIGN_UNIT to be 16, and we are checking scalar type here, so
without user defined alignment it will be 4.
