Richard Sandiford 429ef523f7 Allow gather loads to be used for grouped accesses
Following on from the previous patch for strided accesses, this patch
allows gather loads to be used with grouped accesses, if we otherwise
would need to fall back to VMAT_ELEMENTWISE.  However, as the comment
says, this is restricted to single-element groups for now:

	 ??? Although the code can handle all group sizes correctly,
	 it probably isn't a win to use separate strided accesses based
	 on nearby locations.  Or, even if it's a win over scalar code,
	 it might not be a win over vectorizing at a lower VF, if that
	 allows us to use contiguous accesses.

Single-element groups are an important special case though,
and this means that code is less sensitive to GCC's classification
of single accesses with constant steps as "grouped" and ones with
variable steps as "strided".

	as argument.  Try using a gather load or scatter store for

This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).

The GNU Compiler Collection is free software.  See the files whose
names start with COPYING for copying permission.  The manuals, and
some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the
individual source files for details.

The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information
as HTML and plain text.  The source of this information is
gcc/doc/install.texi.  The installation information includes details
of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.

See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it
includes) for usage and porting information.  An online readable
version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully.

Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range
notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range,
inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed
individually.
