This was reverted because of a miscompilation. At closer inspection, the
problem was actually visible in a changed llvm regression test too. This
one-line follow up fix/recommit will splat the IV, which is what we are trying
to avoid if unnecessary in general, if tail-folding is requested even if all
users are scalar instructions after vectorisation. Because with tail-folding,
the splat IV will be used by the predicate of the masked loads/stores
instructions. The previous version omitted this, which caused the
miscompilation. The original commit message was:
If tail-folding of the scalar remainder loop is applied, the primary induction
variable is splat to a vector and used by the masked load/store vector
instructions, thus the IV does not remain scalar. Because we now mark
that the IV does not remain scalar for these cases, we don't emit the vector IV
if it is not used. Thus, the vectoriser produces less dead code.
Thanks to Ayal Zaks for the direction how to fix this.

Summary:
Getelementptr has vector type if any of its operands are vectors
(the scalar operands being implicitly broadcast to all vector elements).
Extractelement applied to a vector getelementptr can be folded by
applying the extractelement in turn to all of the vector operands.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.
llvm-svn: 358546
At the point when we perform `emitTransformedIndex`, we have a broken IR (in
particular, we have Phis for which not every incoming value is properly set). On
such IR, it is illegal to create SCEV expressions, because their internal
simplification process may try to prove some predicates and break when it
stumbles across some broken IR.
The only purpose of using SCEV in this particular place is attempt to simplify
the generated code slightly. It seems that the result isn't worth it, because
some trivial cases (like addition of zero and multiplication by 1) can be
handled separately if needed, but more generally InstCombine is able to achieve
the goals we want to achieve by using SCEV.
This patch fixes a functional crash described in PR39160, and as side-effect it
also generates a bit smarter code in some simple cases. It also may cause some
optimality loss (i.e. we will now generate `mul` by power of `2` instead of
shift etc), but there is nothing what InstCombine could not handle later. In
case of dire need, we can support more trivial cases just in place.
Note that this patch only fixes one particular case of the general problem that
LV misuses SCEV, attempting to create SCEVs or prove predicates on invalid IR.
The general solution, however, seems complex enough.

Summary:
Getelementptr returns a vector of pointers, instead of a single address,
when one or more of its arguments is a vector. In such case it is not
possible to simplify the expression by inserting a bitcast of operand(0)
into the destination type, as it will create a bitcast between different
sizes.
