        <pre>reduceBuildVecConvertToConvertBuildVec vectorizes int2float in the DAGCombiner,
which means that even if the LV/SLP has decided to keep scalar code, this will
override this.

While there are cases where vectorization is necessary in the DAG (mainly due
to legalization artefacts), I don't think this is the case here. I think we
should get rid of this and instead assume that the vectorizers know what they
are doing. 

SVN blame says this code was added back in 2012.</pre>
