It should be sseshuf1(or sseshuf depending on input operands number in
the pattern) for shufps, sselog means logical instructions.
I think it comes from
Intel SDM Vlolumes1:
5.6.1
Intel® SSE2 Packed and Scalar Double Precision Floating-Point Instructions
there're descriptions for different kinds of instructions.

According to comments, yes, no extra prefix is needed.
;; There are also additional prefixes in 3DNOW, SSSE3.
;; ssemuladd,sse4arg default to 0f24/0f25 and DREX byte,
;; sseiadd1,ssecvt1 to 0f7a with no DREX byte.
;; 3DNOW has 0f0f prefix, SSSE3 and SSE4_{1,2} 0f38/0f3a.

Could you write a testcase for the newly added constraint?
You can use an inline assembly to explicitly use an evex xmm register.
.i.e.
typedef float v4sf __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
typedef int v4si __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
v4sf
foo (float a)
{
register float c __asm("xmm16") = a;
asm volatile ("": "+v"(c));
return __extension__(v4sf) {c, c, c, c};
}
v4si
foo1 (int a)
{
register int c __asm("xmm16") = a;
asm volatile ("": "+v"(c));
return __extension__(v4si) {c, c, c, c};
}
with your patch, the above testcase should generate
vbroadcastss/vpbroadcastd %xmm16, %zmm0 with -mavx512f -mno-avx512vl
-mprefer-vector-width=512.
Refer to gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx512bw-pack-2.c
Otherwise LGTM.
