Looking at this more closely, it occurs to me that the TTI stuff is completely unimplemented for scalable vectors currently, so I'm not going to be able to add this test case. That said, for now, the scope of the cast to FixedVectorType can be reduced to just the two calls to getNumElements(). In principle, it should be possible to implement this function in terms of ElementCount. I'll add a fixme for this.

I think this should be safe, assuming it passes all the tests.
