The assert that caused this to be reverted should be fixed now.
Original commit message:
This patch changes our defualt legalization behavior for 16, 32, and
64 bit vectors with i8/i16/i32/i64 scalar types from promotion to
widening. For example, v8i8 will now be widened to v16i8 instead of
promoted to v8i16. This keeps the elements widths the same and pads
with undef elements. We believe this is a better legalization strategy.
But it carries some issues due to the fragmented vector ISA. For
example, i8 shifts and multiplies get widened and then later have
to be promoted/split into vXi16 vectors.
This has the potential to cause regressions so we wanted to get
it in early in the 10.0 cycle so we have plenty of time to
address them.
Next steps will be to merge tests that explicitly test the command
line option. And then we can remove the option and its associated
code.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

As this has broken the lto bootstrap build for 3 days and is
showing a significant regression on the Dither_benchmark results (from
the LLVM benchmark suite) -- specifically, on the
BENCHMARK_FLOYD_DITHER_128, BENCHMARK_FLOYD_DITHER_256, and
BENCHMARK_FLOYD_DITHER_512; the others are unchanged. These have
regressed by about 28% on Skylake, 34% on Haswell, and over 40% on
Sandybridge.
This reverts commit r353923.

Try to use 64-bit SLP vectorization. In addition to horizontal instrs
this change triggers optimizations for partial vector operations (for instance,
using low halfs of 128-bit registers xmm0 and xmm1 to multiply <2 x float> by
<2 x float>).
Fixes llvm.org/PR32433
