            Bug ID: 18478
           Summary: Overzealous strength reduction on _mm_mullo_epi16
                    producing inferior code
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT

Small repro with generated code

Both of the functions in this file should be equivalent; the former
("good_...") does generate the expected code, but the latter ("bad_...") ends
up "de-SIMDifying" the function almost completely.

The only difference between the two is that the former declares the magic value
at global scope whereas the latter uses the _mm_setr_epi16 intrinsic.

This was tested using the official Clang 3.4 release binaries, not trunk, but
the "Version" field doesn't have 3.4 yet.
