@ctetreau:  We've followed the same route as for llvm.vscale() -> ISD::VSCALE so yes the code generation side is more complete/convenient.  Considering we're expecting `llvm.experimental.stepvector()` to be redundant once there's time to go push for the preferred ConstantVector solution we feel it's better to keep the intrinsic as simple as possible.
