The motivation for that is to catch obvious bugs in vector code generation on 32-bit platforms and aarch64 very early. We, in Oracle, help to test 64 bits but it is not enough I think. Vector API is stable enough already and I think we can have some sanity checks for it in tier1. The only issue is to find subset of tests.

Good suggestion!
And the `jdk_vector_sanity` test group had been added.

The subset is selected as in the following picture (red in the picture).
The XMaxVector tests are selected because they will be 512 vectors on x86/AVX512 and 256 vectors on x86/AVX2.
And for most cases, people would like to use the max length vectors.
Thanks.
