gcc48-pr54716.patch

Untested patch to optimize this.

Unfortunately it will also change generated code for:
__m256d
i (__m256d x, __m256d y)
{
  return (__m256d) _mm256_or_si256 ((__m256i) x, (__m256i) y);
}

Not sure if that is an issue or not.  If we wanted to emit what the user for
whatever reason asked for, the builtin expander could perhaps in those cases
copy one of the arguments into a temporary pseudo before expansion.
