Hello,

processor_alias_table contains the same processor type for all
"corei7", "corei7-avx", "core-avx-i" and "core-avx2". At least, it has
consequence on checking x86_avx256_split_unaligned_load &
ix86_tune_mask: for all these processors it results the same. Moreover
we cannot turn new features on for AVX/AVX2 using
initial_ix86_tune_features.
