That would eliminate the need for the isRegCallReturnableHA helper and the IsWin32StructABI parameter, which is a poorly named variable.

I can apply this condition to isX86VectorTypeForVectorCall like Reid suggested. The only reason I did not do that originally was because I wasn't sure how to differentiate between the calling conventions without changing function declaration. If I don't need to explicitly differentiate between RegCall and VectorCall and can  use the 'length' instead, I think this works better. Like Reid mentioned, it would eliminate the need for isRegCallReturnableHA and IsWin32StructABI.
