Review Comment:
It is essentially about whether we create an additional intermediate buffer
to store the reorganised weights data. This is how it looks like when we don't
inline:
```
for ax2_outer in range(16):
for i2, i3 in T.grid(8, 72):
cse_var_1: T.int32 = i2 * 72
PadInput_1 = T.Buffer((576,), data=PadInput)
p0_1 = T.Buffer((1179648,), data=p0)
PadInput_1[cse_var_1 + i3] =
p0_1[ax0_ax1_outer_fused * 9216 + ax2_outer * 576 + cse_var_1 + i3]
kernel_vec_1 = T.Buffer((1728,), data=kernel_vec)
for oco, ic, oci in T.grid(3, 72, 8):
p1_1 = T.Buffer((1728,), data=p1)
kernel_vec_1[oco * 576 + ic * 8 + oci] = p1_1[ic *
24 + oco * 8 + oci]
conv_1 = T.Buffer((24,), "float32x8", data=conv)
for oco in range(3):
for owi_init in range(8):
conv_1[oco * 8 + owi_init] =
T.Broadcast(T.float32(0), 8)
for ic, owi in T.grid(72, 8):
cse_var_2: T.int32 = oco * 8 + owi
PadInput_1 = T.Buffer((576,), data=PadInput)
conv_1[cse_var_2] =
T.call_llvm_pure_intrin("float32x8", T.uint32(141), T.uint32(3),
T.Broadcast(PadInput_1[owi * 72 + ic], 8), kernel_vec_1[oco * 576 + ic * 8:oco
* 576 + ic * 8 + 8], conv_1[cse_var_2])
```
and this is what happens when we do:
```
for ax2_outer in range(16):
for i2, i3 in T.grid(8, 72):
cse_var_1: T.int32 = i2 * 72
PadInput_1 = T.Buffer((576,), data=PadInput)
p0_1 = T.Buffer((1179648,), data=p0)
PadInput_1[cse_var_1 + i3] = p0_1[ax0_ax1_outer_fused *
9216 + ax2_outer * 576 + cse_var_1 + i3]
conv_1 = T.Buffer((24,), "float32x8", data=conv)
for oco in range(3):
for owi_init in range(8):
conv_1[oco * 8 + owi_init] =
T.Broadcast(T.float32(0), 8)
for ic, owi in T.grid(72, 8):
cse_var_3: T.int32 = oco * 8
cse_var_2: T.int32 = cse_var_3 + owi
PadInput_1 = T.Buffer((576,), data=PadInput)
p1_1 = T.Buffer((1728,), data=p1)
conv_1[cse_var_2] =
T.call_llvm_pure_intrin("float32x8", T.uint32(141), T.uint32(3),
T.Broadcast(PadInput_1[owi * 72 + ic], 8), p1_1[ic * 24 + cse_var_3:ic * 24 +
cse_var_3 + 8], conv_1[cse_var_2])
```
The first one has a loop to fill up the `kernel_vec_1` buffer and we access
this buffer when we calculate `conv_1` values, while in the second case we
don't create `kernel_vec_1` and access weights data (in `p1_1` input variable)
directly.

Review Comment:
Added a comment :)
There is no perfect config that works for all shapes of conv2d and all CPUs
(that's why we tune), but chunks of data of 4 or 8 elements conveniently fit
into vectors (the LLVM vectors of 8 elements get broken down to two vector
instructions). That applies to float32 data though, I didn't analyze int8
performance of these schedules. However, from what I can see, this is the only
conv2d NHWC floating point schedule and the default one for this layout, whilst
for int8 we use other schedules. I don't claim it's the best possible config,
but it worked well on a range of common models I looked at and it is easy to
change and play around with.

Review Comment:
Yes, I haven't looked other schedules in detail, but I assume there are
opportunities to limit the search space in favour of having less failed
attempts during tuning. By eyeballing the tuning results, it seemed like
unrolling/vectorizing across outer axis never succeeded, unless the values of
the tiles corresponding to the inner axis were 1 and being optimised out,
essentially corresponding to not tiling. These kind of configs were not
particularly performant though.
