Allow vsx_extract_<mode> to use Altivec registers.
I noticed that the vsx_extract_<mode> pattern for V2DImode and V2DFmode only allowed traditional floating point registers, and it did not allow Altivec registers. The original code was written a few years ago when we used the old register allocator, and support for scalar floating point in Altivec registers was just being added to GCC. I have built the spec 2017 benchmark suite With all 4 patches in this series applied, and compared it to the build with the previous 3 patches applied. In addition to the changes from the previous 3 patches, this patch now changes the code for the following 3 benchmarks (2 floating point, 1 integer): bwaves_r, fotonik3d_r, xalancbmk_r I have built bootstrap versions on the following systems. There were no regressions in the runs: Power9 little endian, --with-cpu=power9 Power10 little endian, --with-cpu=power10 Power8 big endian, --with-cpu=power8 (both 32-bit & 64-bit tests) 2022-03-29 Michael Meissner <meissner@linux.ibm.com> gcc/ * config/rs6000/vsx.md (vsx_extract_<mode>): Allow destination to be any VSX register.
