I got a little further with this:

def : Pat<(unalignedstore (v2f64 VR128:$src), addr:$dst),
          (MOVSDmr (ADD64ri8 (LEA64r addr:$dst), 8), (MOVPD2SDrr (SHUFPDrri 
(v2f64 VR128:$src), (v2f64 VR128:$src), 3)), (MOVSDmr addr:$dst, FR64:
$src))>;

Now tblgen (rightly) complains about MOVSDmr having too many operands.  How do 
I specify the dependency MOVSD->SHUFPD->MOVSD?

I'm a little nervous about the extra MOVPD2SDrr.  It exists only to get the t
typing correct.  I tried forcing the output of the SHUFPD to be typed f64 but
I couldn't get anything to work.  As an alternative I could write a special
MOVSDrr pattern that accepts a v2f64.  I'm hoping the MOVPD2SDrr will
just be coalesced away.

The bare "3" and "8" seem to be accepted.

So the only remaining problem is how to specify the dependencies.  Is there an 
example in another target that does this sort of thing?
