_mm256_zeroall is emitted as:

(insn 6 3 7 2 (parallel [
            (unspec_volatile [
                    (const_int 0 [0])
                ] UNSPECV_VZEROALL)
            (set (reg:V8SI 20 xmm0)
                (const_vector:V8SI [
                        (const_int 0 [0]) repeated x8
                    ]))
            (set (reg:V8SI 21 xmm1)
                (const_vector:V8SI [
                        (const_int 0 [0]) repeated x8
                    ]))
...
            (set (reg:V8SI 51 xmm15)
                (const_vector:V8SI [
                        (const_int 0 [0]) repeated x8
                    ]))
        ])

and _mm256_setzero_ps as:

(insn 7 6 8 2 (set (reg:V8SF 83)
        (const_vector:V8SF [
                (const_double:SF 0.0 [0x0.0p+0]) repeated x8
            ]))

There is mode mismatch between (insn 6) and (insn 7) so postreload CSE is not
able to eliminate (insn 7).

Using the following patch^w hack that changes the mode of vzeroall registers:

the compiler is able to eliminate (insn 7) in postreload pass, producing:

fn:
        vzeroall
        vmovups %ymm0, (%rdi)
        vzeroupper
        ret

It looks to me that postreload CSE should be taught about the equivalence of
vector modes - a V8SFmode zero has the same bit representation as V8SImode zero
(and V4DImode, ...), as long as the mode size is the same.

Recategorizing as rtl-optimization.
