> Hi,
> 
> Currently, unsigned comparison on AVX is implemented by zero extending elements and comparing the results. This leads to unnecessary complexity. This patch changes the implementation to use the identity existing in `Integer/Long.compareUnsigned`, that is `compareUnsigned(x, y) == compare(x ^ min_value, y ^ min_value)`.
