> aarch64_sve.ad was merged with aarch64_neon.ad into aarch64_vector.ad, but while I'm using SVE instructions, I'm not using SVE types. match_rule_supported_vector isn't called by the scalar compiler code for intrinsics, and so we'd be deviating further from the common code. I'm reluctant to move the rules into aarch64_vector.ad file, as that would separate it from the match_rule_supported code that enables it - placing it among vector code doesn't really match the intent behind the code using vector instructions to perform scalar operations.

Hmm, interesting. Seems a bit odd, but OK. I guess I have to admit that a bunch of code that's not vectors uses the vector uint.
