Previously checking for `pmoda == 0` would get LLVM to generate branchy
code, when, for `stride = 1` the offset can be computed without such a
branch by doing effectively a `-p % a`.
For well-known (constant) alignments, with the new ordering of these
conditionals, we end up generating 2 to 3 cheap instructions on x86_64:
movq %rdi, %rax
negl %eax
andl $7, %eax
instead of 5+ as previously.
For unknown alignments the new code also generates just 3 instructions:
negq %rdi
leaq -1(%rsi), %rax
andq %rdi, %rax
