Masked vectors which hold shift amounts when creating the following nodes:
ISD::SHL, ISD::SRL or ISD::SRA.
Instructions that use said nodes, which have had their arguments altered are
sll, srl, sra, bneg, bclr and bset.
For said instructions, the shift amount or the bit position that is
specified in the corresponding vector elements will be interpreted as the
shift amount/bit position modulo the size of the element in bits.
The problem lies in compiling with -O2 enabled, where the instructions for
formats .w and .d are not generated, but are instead optimized away.
In this case, having shift amounts that are either negative or greater than
the element bit size results in generation of incorrect results when
constant folding.
We remedy this by masking the operands for the nodes mentioned above before
actually creating them, so that the final result is correct before placed
into the constant pool.
