The underlying issues surrounding codegen for 32-bit vselects have been resolved. The pessimistic costs for 64-bit vselects remain due to the bad
scalarization that is still happening there.
I tested this on A57 in T32, A32 and A64 modes. I saw no regressions, and some improvements.
From my benchmarks, I saw these improvements in A57 (T32)
spec.cpu2000.ref.177_mesa 5.95%
lnt.SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/strcat 12.93%
lnt.MultiSource/Benchmarks/MiBench/telecomm-CRC32/telecomm-CRC32 11.89%
I also measured A57 A32, A53 T32 and A9 T32 and found no performance regressions. I see much bigger wins in third-party benchmarks with this change

This patch fixes the multiple breakages on ARM test-suite after the SLP
vectorizer was introduced by default on O3. The problem was an illegal
vector type on ARMTTI::getCmpSelInstrCost() <3 x i1> which is not simple.
The guard protects this code from breaking (cause of the problems) but
doesn't fix the issue that is generating the odd vector in the first
place, which also needs to be investigated.

I was too pessimistic in r177105. Vector selects that fit into a legal register
type lower just fine. I was mislead by the code fragment that I was using. The
stores/loads that I saw in those cases came from lowering the conditional off
an address.
Changing the code fragment to:
%T0_3 = type <8 x i18>
%T1_3 = type <8 x i1>
define void @func_blend3(%T0_3* %loadaddr, %T0_3* %loadaddr2,
%T1_3* %blend, %T0_3* %storeaddr) {
%v0 = load %T0_3* %loadaddr
%v1 = load %T0_3* %loadaddr2
==> FROM:
;%c = load %T1_3* %blend
==> TO:
%c = icmp slt %T0_3 %v0, %v1
==> USE:
%r = select %T1_3 %c, %T0_3 %v0, %T0_3 %v1
store %T0_3 %r, %T0_3* %storeaddr
ret void
}
revealed this mistake.

By terrible I mean we store/load from the stack.
This matters on PAQp8 in _Z5trainPsS_ii (which is inlined into Mixer::update)
where we decide to vectorize a loop with a VF of 8 resulting in a 25%
degradation on a cortex-a8.
LV: Found an estimated cost of 2 for VF 8 For instruction: icmp slt i32
LV: Found an estimated cost of 2 for VF 8 For instruction: select i1, i32, i32
The bug that tracks the CodeGen part is PR14868.
