[Bug c/37809] New: Incorrect code with MMX right shift __builtin_ia32_psradi


Bug on both trunk and 4.3.2 [for the latter, change psradi to psrad as the
builtin function name changed].

Compiling the following code with  -O2 -flax-vector-conversions -mmmx -msse
-msse2  generates incorrect code:


typedef int v2si __attribute__ ((vector_size (8)));
v2si foo (v2si x)
{
    x &= (v2si) 0xffffffffll;
    x = __builtin_ia32_psradi (x, 1);
    x &= (v2si) 0x80000000ll;
    return x;
}


The compile incorrectly assumes that bit 31 of the shift result always ends up
as zero:

foo:
        pxor    %xmm0, %xmm0
        ret


Presumeably, some optimiseration is incorrectly treating the v2si right shift
as a 64-bit right shift.

[It appears to me that both nonzero_bits1 and num_sign_bit_copies1 can
incorrectly optimise vector operation as if they were scalar ops, which is what
inspired this example, however, attempting to fix those did not fix this bug,
which makes me think the problem is elsewhere.]
