There is a wrong assumption that the vector element type and the
type of each ConstantSDNode in the build_vector were the same.
However, when promoting the integer operand of a legally typed
build_vector, the operand type and the vector element type do not
need to be the same
(See method 'DAGTypeLegalizer::PromoteIntOp_BUILD_VECTOR' in
LegalizeIntegerTypes.cpp).
in AArch64 backend, the following dag sequence:
C0: i1 = Constant<0>
C1: i1 = Constant<-1>
V: v8i1 = BUILD_VECTOR C1, C1, C0, C0, C0, C0, C0, C0
is type-legalized into:
NewC0: i32 = Constant<0>
NewC1: i32 = Constant<1>
V: v8i8 = BUILD_VECTOR NewC1, NewC1, NewC0, NewC0, NewC0, NewC0, NewC0, NewC0
Forcing a getZeroExtend to VTBits to ensure that the new constant
is correctly.
