VZEROUPPER should not be issued on Knights Landing (KNL), but on Skylake-avx512 it should be.

Isel now selects masked move instructions for vselect instead of blendm. But sometimes it beneficial to register allocation to remove the tied register constraint by using blendm instructions.
This also picks up cases where the masked move was created due to a masked load intrinsic.

There are cases of AVX-512 instructions that have two possible encodings. This is the case with instructions that use vector registers with low indexes of 0 - 15 and do not use the zmm registers or the mask k registers.
The EVEX encoding prefix requires 4 bytes whereas the VEX prefix can take only up to 3 bytes. Consequently, using the VEX encoding for these instructions results in a code size reduction of ~2 bytes even though it is compiled with the AVX-512 features enabled.
