So looking at the differences between "before" and "after", we're seeing:
test6_nor:
.LFB13:
.cfi_startproc
- xxlor 34,34,35
li 9,0
lvx 0,0,9
addi 10,1,-16
xxpermdi 32,32,32,2
stxvd2x 32,0,10
xxpermdi 32,32,32,2
- vsububm 2,0,2
- vspltisw 0,-1
+ xxlnor 34,34,35
vaddubm 2,2,0
stvx 2,0,9
blr
...so yes, we are getting more folding than before and the generated code is
better, so we should update the expected counts. It seems to be the same issue
in all of the tests.
