This patch uses GET_MODE_UNIT_SIZE instead of GET_MODE_SIZE in cases where, for compound modes, the mode of the scalar elements is what matters. E.g. the choice between truncation and extension is really based on the modes of the consistuent scalars rather than the mode as a whole.
None of the existing code was wrong. The patch simply makes things easier when converting to variable-sized modes. Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu, and by making sure that there were no differences in testsuite assembly output for one target per CPU. OK to install?
