It at least "almost" works, apart from

I suppose the compare patterns need similar adjustments (though I
couldn't find any SSE lt one, but that may be an artifact).

Modeless operands are warned on though - do we have something better
to simulate the effect?  Like a mode mapper that does a 1:1 translation
of an input mode from a mode iterator to another one?  Can we
use define_mode_attr for this?  Like

etc.  That would still leave the result and 1st/2nd operand modes
unspecified though (but we'd have the comparison result always
an appropriate integer mode).  Maybe

(define_expand "vcond<mode>"
  [(set (match_operand:V_128 0 "register_operand" "")
        (if_then_else
          (match_operator:<cmpmode> 3 ""

  "TARGET_SSE"
{
  bool ok = ix86_expand_fp_vcond (operands);
  gcc_assert (ok);
  DONE;
})

and a similar _256 patterns would work as well, but I guess it would
lead to duplicate vcond<mode> gen_* functions.
