; Check that at -O0, the backend doesn't attempt to canonicalize a vector load
; used by an INSERTPS into a scalar load plus scalar_to_vector.
;
; In order to fold a load into the memory operand of an INSERTPSrm, the backend
; tries to canonicalize a vector load in input to an INSERTPS node into a
; scalar load plus scalar_to_vector. This would allow ISel to match the
; INSERTPSrm variant rather than a load plus INSERTPSrr.
;
; However, ISel can only select an INSERTPSrm if folding a load into the operand
; of an insertps is considered to be profitable.
;
; In the example below:
;
; __m128 test(__m128 a, __m128 *b) {
;   __m128 c = _mm_insert_ps(a, *b, 1 << 6);
;   return c;
; }
;
; At -O0, the backend would attempt to canonicalize the load to 'b' into
; a scalar load in the hope of matching an INSERTPSrm.
; However, ISel would fail to recognize an INSERTPSrm since load folding is
; always considered unprofitable at -O0. This would leave the insertps mask
; in an invalid state.
;
; The problem with the canonicalization rule performed by the backend is that
; it assumes ISel to always be able to match an INSERTPSrm. This assumption is
; not always correct at -O0. In this example, FastISel fails to lower the
; arguments needed by the entry block. This is enough to enable the DAGCombiner
; and eventually trigger the canonicalization on the INSERTPS node.
;
; This test checks that the vector load in input to the insertps is not
; canonicalized into a scalar load plus scalar_to_vector (a movss).
