I think it follows the following rule for canonicalization from
tree_swap_operands_p:
  /* It is preferable to swap two SSA_NAME to ensure a canonical form
     for commutative and comparison operators.  Ensuring a canonical
     form allows the optimizers to find additional redundancies without
     having to explicitly check for both orderings.  */
  if (TREE_CODE (arg0) == SSA_NAME
      && TREE_CODE (arg1) == SSA_NAME
      && SSA_NAME_VERSION (arg0) > SSA_NAME_VERSION (arg1))
    return 1;

For the above test-case, it's ccp1 that inverts the comparison.
The input to ccp1 pass is:
  _12 = __builtin_neon_vabsv2sf (a_6(D));
  _14 = _12;
  _1 = _14;
  _11 = __builtin_neon_vabsv2sf (b_8(D));
  _16 = _11;
  _2 = _16;
  _3 = _1 >= _2;
  _4 = VEC_COND_EXPR <_3, { -1, -1 }, { 0, 0 }>;
  _10 = VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<uint32x2_t>(_4);
  return _10;

_3 = _1 >= _2 is folded into:
_3 = _12 >= _11

Since _12 is higher ssa version than _11, it is canonicalized to:
_3 = _11 <= _12.
