Hi, Due to specifics of the POWER architecture, some forms of a vector compare followed by a vector select are represented in RTL as a compare, followed by a logical NOT, followed by the select. This tends to end up generating an extra instruction. This patch adds a case to simplify-rtx.c to remove the logical NOT by reversing the outcomes of the select. I've added a POWER-specific test case that demonstrates that the issue is fixed.
Bootstrapped and tested on powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu with no regressions. Is this ok for trunk?
