I have added the additional expand_vec_cond_expr_p check and also changed
the less_than expression to be (lt:vec_truth_type ...) because
otherwise there were
type issues when running GCC with -fchecking.
As per my previous comment I haven't replaced uniform_integer_cst_p with
VECTOR_CST because the vectorized shift doesn't use a VECTOR_CST but
rather a scalar constant. I don't know if I can assume that the
constant will always
be a scalar value. If that is the case and it is preferable to replace
the use of
uniform_integer_cst_p with a combination of VECTOR_CST and INTEGER_CST
please let me know and I will do so.
