calculating Luhn checksum with Vector API

Hi folks,
I've implemented [1] the common Luhn checksum algorithm [2], and I have a
few questions:
How does one verify that the method is jitting to the good instructions,
rather than to e.g. a sequential fallback?
Is L31-L39 the right way to do an addition across lanes? Should
VectorShuffles be squirreled away in a static final? I see the admonition
at the end of [3] about storing in non-final fields, but I wasn't sure if
hotspot would treat the inline locals as constant.
Thanks!
