================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Target/ARM/ARMInstrVFP.td:2494
+ let Predicates = [HasV8_1MMainline, HasMVEInt],
+                   D=MVEDomain, validForTailPredication=1 in {
    // System level VPR/P0 -> GPR
----------------
Can you explain what ramifications making these validForTailPredication has? And why it helps to make these part of the MVEDomain? (The are really just VFP instructions. They are unpredictable for non-mve, but given the options I think I would move these and scalar shifts out of the MVE domain!)

They sound like they would need to be handled specially in the backend pass anyway, but that pass is a bit complex for me to follow at this point.
