To the best of my knowledge, openjdk/jdk is missing VectorAPI reducion micro-benchmarks.

I left a comment in this "resolved comment thread" several days ago. See https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/23181/files#r2179185158. It might be overlooked since the whole conversation was marked as resolved already.

I personally think we should not allow `vsrc` and `vtmp2` to match.
