Yes.  Or well, it assumes it can use the .LOOP_VECTORIZED condition
as versioning condition and there simply use insert the condition without
further checks.  And the checks are generated utlimatively from SCEV
which just expands things up to the loops preheader.

The hoisting itself is, but that we don't just hoist to the loops preheader
is for correctness, not an optimization ... it's indeed a bit messy though.
