+ for (unsigned i = 0; i < IRCallArgs.size(); ++i)
+ LargestVectorWidth = std::max(LargestVectorWidth,
+ getMaxVectorWidth(IRCallArgs[i]->getType()));

Update for bullet 5. The handling for multi vector elements is correct. It's
also passed / returned by memory. So it's still not affected by this change.
