In my opinion this is possible optimization opportunity loss, because when minimum iteration check for original loop fails, can still try executing epilog loop and that requires epilog loop’s minimum iteration check. We can keep his under option.

Is there any update with this patch? I find it very useful for cycles and size for targets that has masked operations not just for load and store but also for other operations including intra operations
